[iSNS-discussion] iSNS Server Howto

[Nicholas A. B. <na...@ke...>]

Greetings all,

I have posted the initial iSNS and iSNS server howto entry on
linux-iscsi.org:

http://www.linux-iscsi.org/index.php/ISNS
http://www.linux-iscsi.org/index.php/Linux_iSNS_Server_Howto

Please have a look at the pages for futher information on the status of
features within the iSNS server stack.  Also, Robert @ Novell had
mentioned previously that there has been much work done recently on the
iSNS server side.  We had agreed earlier to merge our efforts for the
iSNS server side, and I am offering this howto as a first step for
Linux/iSCSI folks to get an iSNS server up and running as quickly as
possible with existing code.  There is also an effort for OpenSolaris
folks for an iSNS server.  Olaf, please feel free to add information to
the howto about how to get this setup on a Linux machine.

I encourage everyone to add to these entries and howto.  Espically on
the iSNS server code that is being shipped from distribution vendors,
please add this information at your earliest convience so visitors to
Linux-iSCSI.org can determine where to go for builds and futher
distribution specific information.  While there are currently 3 RFC
ready iSNS implementations publically available, making this as least
confusing as possible to actually get an iSNS server up and running is
the goal.

Any comments are welcomed.

Thanks!
