I tested Cisco's code
it has not implemented naming,
it is also faking the server side,
he is using swap file to simulate scsi disk.

no authentication also

any comments on this one let me know...

Hi Nitin,

Very glad to know you have the iSCSI server side code with authentication. I
am eager to get it. So please email me with an attachment.

Thank you very much,

Beihong
