It would appear that I'm bumping the status sequence number and Microsoft thinks that's wrong. This should be easy to trace since the first time the error occurs is early in the connection.

I've just done a few simple tests with the new solaris iscsi target code. I'm using Microsoft Server 2003 R2, and the debug version of the Microsoft iscsi initiator (v2.03). I can mount and format the target, and copy files across, and everything "seems" to work ok. But when I look in the output window of 'DebugView', I see the following messages:

So it does look like it thinks there is something not quite right in the status sequence numbering, which causes a dropped connection, but followed immediately by a successful re-login. It recovers so quickly that you would not think a problem had occurred. And I don't understand why it say's "Did not find target portal", because it obviously can find it, or it would not be working!

It's almost as if something is timing out. Every time I do an operation on the target, it repeats the termination, then re-login cycle. I've not done any Ethereal traces yet, but thought it best to confirm that I can see the 'problem'.
