The linked page is a howto on using IET and Open-iSCSI. Elsewhere on the net, I read that tgt (Stgt?) is the replacement for IET... Which naturally leads to a confused me: Is it true that tgt will replace IET? If not (or not in the near future), what's the advantage/disadvantage of one over the other? If true, are there any links/howtos/tutorial on using tgt? And tuning it? Thanks in advance!
