IPMITool Commands Not Working When Using Encryption Key

I'm able to remotely communicate with a server's BMC with the following command when the default "all zeros" are entered into the Encryption Key configuration.

sudo ipmitool -I lanplus -H -U chassis power status

Yet I get the following error when I use an encryption/kg key symetric pair:

sudo ipmitool -I lanplus -H -U -k -vv chassis power status

[...]<

<< Message tag : 0x00

Unable to get Chassis Power Status

Using the Dell Troubleshooting Tool, I get "Connection Passed" when the encryption/KG Key is typed in.

Any suggestions as what I can try next?

    Just looking at this now...

    iDRAC uses hexidemial keys.  So we expect to use -x option for ipmitool to work wtih keys.

    Something like:

    ipmitool -I lanplus -H 10.1.1.1 -U root -P yourPasswd -x 00AADD0000000000000000000000000000000000 chassis power status

    Thanks,
