I always used IET on CentOS but I have a quick server to setup to backup some VM's, then migrate to DAS

just use the ini that ships with CentOS but have never used it against ESX, anyone do this and have experiences
they care to share? Should it be trivial or are there any non standard configs that need to be used?

Thanks!

I have CentOS v5.2 running as an iSCSI target server and multiple ESXi servers as the initiator with VMFS. This works great! The tgt daemon that comes with CentOS is simple to support as long as you know how to use tgtadm to setup the targets. I modified the tgtd init script to allow me to use config files. I did not use CHAP since this was a private network. I just locked it down by IP range. ESX had no problems connecting too and mounting the iSCSI targets.
