But if those are hard to get: Don't invest too much time. I was going to add the isisd soon (I goofed on the bit/byte printing in my first try and forgot about it). I had not planned on the tsid, but will add it when I add isisd. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups open-iscsi group.
