For some purposes at the moment, working IP-over-SCSI could be rather handy... ;-).
I can see some project(s) for this but I am not sure which actaully work. Many seem to want to have a particular SCSI board.... In short, I am stuck with a particular SCSI board in some machine(s) (e.g. 'pizzabox' small machines with onboard SCSI). Is there any implementation that just works over SG (scsi generic) interface etc. and hence controller independant? This would need to be happy to work cross-architectures (MIPS, PPC, i386, etc.). I would like any comments or pointers to working mechanisms/projects for this... Even just a 'manual tunnel' would be good -- i.e. a userspace program that listens for a TCP connection from localhost, carries that over SG, to listening/replying version at the other end, that carries the data to a TCP-connection TO localhost at the other end. In fact, at least so far as X11 goes, something similar that works at the UNIX socket layer would be nice, but then the 'reliability' needs to be implemented too, which is sortof reinventing the wheel, TCP does this anyway ;-), unless the SCSI connection with 'sg' can be considered truly reliable?? Comments welcome, please ;-). --S Iremonger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 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
