The original poster wants the reverse - IP over SCSI :) There was some work a long time ago to do this, mostly for curiosity sake: One link is http://w3.ualg.pt/~dubuf/ipscsi.html There's even RFC2143 that specifies a packet format for crazy people who want to do this. Few benefits of those that could be thought - u320 scsi is essentially 3gbps of bandwidth. SCSI has natural support for jumbo packets - SCSI packet can be 256kbytes in size. -alex - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
