One would hope so. I think there's a Linux implementation for iSCSI
that could probably be ported to FreeBSD. There's also a commercial
NetBSD based iSCSI appliance of which I don't know whether the iSCSI
part is open. I doubt it, though. If it were, that'd be the place to
start.

That meant exactly.

Try porting MOSIX to FreeBSD... Or use Linux and get both problems
solved for "free" (not entirely, cause you get bugged by Linux ;-).


Best regards,
 Gabriel
