Hi!

I'm interested in SCSI as a data link between two PC's running
FreeBSD. I've found some hints in the sources that is it possible
to implement support for the mode. Has somebody already done it?
What information do I need to implement support? I've the sources
of the libsu library that allows user access to SCSI-devices.
I think it must be possible to write the extensions for the
processor device target mode.

I've the Adaptec 1542cf SCSI-Adapter. Does it support the target
mode? Is there anybody out there that has tried/implemented the
code for this adapter are another one?

thanks
