There is also discussion on the kernel target development list, I believe, since the targetcli-fb and friends packages just give you access (generally through sysfs) to the kernel target code (i.e. LIO). >> >> >> >> I have been using the -fb versions for a while now and not had any >> issues with them. >> You do need to use either the -fb versions for all, or the non-fb >> versions for all.

In some distributions, such as mine (SUSE), the non-fb versions are deprecated, since there is *no* new development there in years. >> >> I also don't remember getting any emails on this list for a while either. >> >> -- >> Joost >> -- >> Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.

What do you say they are not much maintained any more? It looks to me like the last commit to targetcli-fb was about 6 weeks ago. > All three packages are maintained and get regular updates. The projects are hosted on github now, under the open-iscsi project, i.e.: https://github.com/open-iscsi/targetcli-fb at version v2.1.fb49 https://github.com/open-iscsi/rtslib-fb at version v2.1.fb69 https://github.com/open-iscsi/configshell-fb at version v1.1.fb25 By the way, a google of "targetcli-fb git sources" showed the current github repository as the first entry. -- Lee
