FreeBSD version of hpacucli?

[Jan Mikkelsen]

Hi John,

Thanks for the reply.

I've had a look at the SSST and the Linux tools.  I also spent some time
looking at whether the Linux versions of these utilities would work under
FreeBSD, but they seem to spend a bunch of time looking for things in /proc
that we don't have in linprocfs.

I'll have another look at the tools.  It may be that I'll have to script the
builds under Linux.

If I can do anything to help finish the utility off, please let me know!

Thanks,

Jan Mikkelsen
