Right, it looks like the NCR driver doesn't honor the CAM_DIS_DISCONNECT flag. The Adaptec driver does, FWIW. > Is there any method of disabling disconnects with the NCR driver? Have you tried using camcontrol(8) to disable disconnects? e.g.: camcontrol negotiate da0 -v -D disable I think that should work with the NCR driver. > What's the difference between CAM_DIS_AUTODISC and CAM_DIS_DISCONNECT? (Sorry if > that's a stupid question, I'm not very familier with low-level SCSI). I think CAM_DIS_AUTODISC is for disabling disconnects in target mode, if I read the CAM spec right. (If you want to look at the CAM specs, go to www.t10.org.)
