first of all,

target# iscsitadm list target
initiator# iscsiadm -m node -P 1

matches


second, here's the 4 relevant lines of
/etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf

node.startup = automatic
node.session.authmethod = CHAP
node.session.auth.username = <xxx>
node.session.auth.password = <xxx>

I can discover, but when I try to login

iscsiadm -m node -l

It failed

There are discovery.sendtargets.auth.* settings which is used for CHAP 
during discovery sessions (sessions that are created so the initiatlr 
can ask the target what target and portls it has - what happens when you 
run iscsiadm -m discovery -t st -p ip:port). Then for sessions to the 
target/portals we found during discovery or setup statically that we 
access devices like disks through we have the node.session.auth.* values.

Initially when you do discovery the /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf settings are 
read in and used for discovery and for setting up the target/portal 
records (when you see when you run iscsiadm -m node and iscsiadm -m node 
-T target -p ip:port). If you want to change a specific target portals 
settings in the db you can see them with

iscsiadm -m node -T target -p ip:port
then change them with

iscsiadm -m node -T target -p ip:port -o update -n 
name-of-param-like-.node.session.auth.username -v yourname

or you can also just edit /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf and rerun the discovery 
command if you wanted to overwrite everything.
