You should probably coordinate with Gerard Roudier, and probably Justin Gibbs as well. > Has anyone here used target-mode? Or written an IP transport layer > on top of it? Justin has used target mode. (Obviously, since he wrote the Adaptec driver support for it.) I think his setup was/is primarily processor target devices on both ends. No one (as far as I know) has written an IP transport layer on top of it.
