You also need the crypto modules. That is why the iscsi_tcp module did not get loaded I think. In the lsmod below you have the crypto modules loaded > crc32c 1792 0 > libcrc32c 2560 1 crc32c but libiscsi did not get loaded. In the above lsmod libiscsi also did not get loaded. > > On a test system, I built the exact same kernel release and open- > iscsi release.

Is that still correct?

Are you running make install to install the modules, then running modprobe iscsi_tcp to load them? Make sure yo have the crypto modules from the 2.6.26 kernel are built and installed. CONFIG_CRYPTO and CONFIG_CRYPTO_CRC32C in the .config. Then after you do make install on iscsi, try and do a depmod to make sure the dependencies are all getting picked up. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "open-iscsi" group.
