More like "Secret Squirrel meets George Jetson in the Twilight Zone."

A problem in LUN numbering, perhaps?  The one thing LUN 0 has in common
among all manufacturers is how to specify it.  For non-zero LUN numbers,
you need to know the 16-digit address.  Some (most?) SAN admins don't know
this, supplying you only with vague phrases like "I gave you LUNs 0
through 5."  You are left, then, to ferret out the correct LUN number
syntax.  When you ask them for the full value, they look at you like you
came from another planet.
