Hello
Today, we've been trying the Solaris Express build 54 iscsitarget with the Microsoft initiator v2 running on WinXP, and we are seeing the same problem. No sooner has it connected, then it drops. It retries afew times, then gives up. This test was with real hardware, not vmware. We used a Sun Ultra-20 for Solaris and a Dell PC for WinXP, with a direct Ethernet connection.

I've captured an Ethereal trace and posted it to http:// www.nwsmith.net/solaris/iscsi.cap

Ethereal shows WinXP sending a 'Report LUNs' command with option 'Select All LUNS (0x00)', then solaris replies with an ACK packet, and waits one second, and then solaris send a FIN,ACK packet to tear down the connection.


Wow, that's different than what I've seen. I'll have to look at my trace again since I thought I saw the FIN,ACK coming from the Microsoft Initiator.

Thanks for this information. In my traces I saw three commands successfully complete (REPORT_LUNS, standard INQUIRY, and INQUIRY page 0). It looks like the connection reset is a timing issue such that on my setup three commands are run whereas on yours only the first command.

Rick, I guess we will just have to be patient with this problem, and wait till it gets to the top of your to-do list.
Thanks

This problem is quickly bubbling it's way to the top of my list. It's in the #2 spot right now which means I'll start working on this issue this week while I finish up another task.

Again, thanks for the information.
