I guess you already have been told that the aic7xxx and isp drivers are providing some host target mode through FreeBSD-CAM, but, btw, there is nothing for now related to IP over SCSI in FreeBSD-CAM. I have target mode for the sym driver on my todo list and even have some prelimary code ready since September, but due to limited time (and probably too limited brain :) ) I am very late on that development. At the moment, I am working on an unified SYM driver (nothing to do with UDI at all, but just a portable driver based on cpp features) for Linux and FreeBSD. It is based on FreeBSD sym and will (does, since I already use it) replace the 3 drivers I currently maintain (2 under Linux and `sym' under FreeBSD). I cannot announce any date of availability for target mode support in `sym'. I wanted to have it before end-2K, but I will probably be weeks or months late. Regards, G=E9rard.
