enhancement: user manipulation ability

[korekhov]

Please, add a BMC user manipulation ability to rubyipmi library so it can be exposed through Foreman BMC smart-proxy, for example.

freeipmi provider does not have this ability at all, so it is only ipmitool that can help with this.

Thanks!

What exactly do we need this to do? Add User, delete user, modify user?

Also see the github.com/logicminds/bmclib.

Yep, all of those plus password changes.

As we spoke some time ago, ideally all of the ipmitool features should be exposed through your library. The easiest way, IMHO, is just to mimic the exact command arguments as a REST string, for example:

ipmitool user list = GET /user/list

Thanks!
