I will write it anyway. info: I have built a NAS server under FreeBSD. Geom RAID5 over 3 hard disks and iSCSI target0 created. It is up and running without problems "exporting" a SCSI driver to a Ms Windows 2000 Server with Microsoft iSCSI Inititator driver. The volume is NTFS. doubt: I have read multiple "old" posts around the web that I can't connect multiple initiators (w2k clients) to the same target. Is this true nowadays? Facts: I really need at least two w2k clients to the same "storage NAS". Any tip about how to solve this? Maybe some kind of failover technique between both w2k servers? I really appreciate your help. Thanks in advance Best Regards Francisco PS: I sent this email to freebsd-scsi ML too. No anwsers until now. -- blog: http://sufixo.com/raw http://www.linkedin.com/in/franciscocabrita
