The maximum password length is 16 characters - but there is no warning of this when using the tool to reset the password: so if you do not know this and reset the password with:
ipmitool -I open -U ADMIN -P ADMIN user set password 2 mypasswordoversixteen
It returns no error - but if you try and login with that password it does not work.
A simple thing that would make life for us idiots who don't read the manual easier would be to do a length check on submitted password and throw an error if it is longer than sixteen characters.
