In the last episode (Sep 15), Paul said: Is there anyone using fibrechannel SAN solutions with FreeBSD ? I had a FreeBSD running on a SAN using qlogic cards a few months back but had to put Linux on it. It works fine. I have a couple questions: 1) Is concurrent access possible ? Like in a

Hi- Yes- it was a fun though short lunch. We support the Qlogic 2100/2200 cards currently for both private loop and fabrics. The emulex card is popular, but nobody's written a driver for it for FreeBSD. On Thu, 4 Nov 1999, Jonathan M. Bresler wrote: Matt, Thank you for lunch at

What gives? Why wasn't this committed to the NetBSD and FreeBSD trees, too? I mean, it's not like the version in the NetBSD tree works anymore since you removed the firmware (on-board firmware on most of the adapters I have is way too old, for example). Any reason NetBSD and FreeBSD don't just
