I'd never even heard of it, and I've looked hard for iscsi initiators...
my search skills obviously aren't what they used to be!!!

I'm using the cisco stack too, remote boot is a PITA but otherwise it
runs well, and I can even do a reboot of the target (iet) and
linux-iscsi picks up the pieces quite nicely.

The unh initiator remote boots very nicely but I couldn't make it play
with iet, and it didn't cope with the target going down and coming back
up again.

I'll download and build the open-iscsi initiator now!
