Hey,
I've got a server at work running Etch with what looks to be a custom kernel,
It's running low on space and we have a hitachi sms 100 ISCSI san that
had a 1.0terabyte partition waiting for it to use without security
(CHAP).
i'm skipping step one because there is no authentication

has anyone had any luck with open-iscsi? or is this version
incompatible with this kernel?
the lenny version requires an libc6 update and i'd be pretty worried
that upgrading that would destroy the dvc box, something i can't
really afford to do. i'm also not 100% whether this version of iscsi
supports the DVC kernel which may not help.
