I had logged bug 1293108, a duplicate of this bug, but I will log my comment here as well.
Short Story: The bug fix mentioned in comment #5 solved my compile error during the installing of iscsitarget-dkms and iscsitarget. Longer Story: Today, 2014-03-26, I updated my 64-bit Lubuntu Trusty Tahr with all packages, specifically, iscsitarget-dkms, and iscsitarget version 1.4.20.3+svn499-0ubuntu1. I then re-installed them via: sudo apt-get install --reinstall iscsitarget-dkms sudo apt-get install --reinstall iscsitarget I was then able to proceed with setting up an iSCSI target on machine #1, and set up an iSCSI client on machine #2 (and machine #1). I was then able to backup files from machine #2, the iSCSI client, to machine #1, the iSCSI target, via the iSCSI protocol. I also was able to view and access this iSCSI target on machine #1 from machine #1. (yes the same machine) Note to self: Since machine #1, now has a firewall (UFW) set up, I had to allow tcp port 3260 so that machine #2 could make a connection. Note to self: Machine #1 takes an extra 90 seconds or so to boot up. Not sure who's causing this: RAID, LVM, Encryption, or the new iSCSI target and iSCSI client that I just got configured. I do see this 90 second gap in /var/log/syslog: ...
