Neil, Thanks for your response. I think I have determined that the RHEL 6.3 Beta implementation is pretty mucked up. As best I can tell there is a version mismatch between the kernel drivers and the user space tools, so it is unsurprising that many features don't work. I will contact RedHat and see if I can get some patches for testing.
Thanks again, Steve Condas ________________________________ From: Neil Horman <[email protected]> To: Steve Condas <[email protected]> Cc: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2012 10:47 AM Subject: Re: [Open-FCoE] (no subject) On Mon, May 28, 2012 at 03:46:31PM -0700, Steve Condas wrote: > All, > > I am attempting to use Open FCOE target through its implementation in RHEL > 6.3 Beta.

The error is that it can't find auth/userid (I assume CHAP > authentication from looking at the code) for the ACL.

It would seem that something may be going wrong with the tcm_fc module initalization preventing its registering locally as an fcoe provider. That may also be whats causing your strange auth errors (or contributing to them). Do you have any log entries describing problems with the insertion of the tcp_fc module?
