StarPort CHAP Incompatibility with 3rd Party iSCSI Target

[dutch55]

I tried the StarPort initiator against an iSCSI target from RASilient Systems. (See www.rasilient.com). CHAP failed. Here is what one of their developers said when I reported it to them. They think it is your problem:


"The StarPort initiator has some problem with the CHAP state machine. It tries to negotiate AUTH_METHOD at the last step instead of the very first step."

Dear Anton:

If you want to establish a dialog to resolve with them, pls send me a private message.
