Yeah, we played around with OpenFiler, but for some reason I didn't get
the feel that I'd want to run it for long.

Sorry, I meant iSCSI TARGET, not Initiator...

I used it about two years ago as an iSCSI initiator. It worked pretty
well for a while, but we needed something a little more solid,
supportable, and scalable, so we eventually ended up getting a
full-blown SAN. 

The main problems I had were due to the rPath-based Linux distro that it
ran on (this may have changed by now) and some of the updates to the OS
caused problems with the iSCSI stack. After this happened a few times, I
scrambled for something that's got less of a moving target for a
foundation.

        If so would you share the good, bad, the ugly and the "Holy Cow,
