I haven't paid attention to iSCSI support. Is there anyone using it heavily for disk-storage under FreeBSD? Has there been much changed for iSCSI support in the 8.x branch, or is 7.x support working fine? -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
