Yes, as of RH 5.3 iser is included in the stgt package provided with the 
distro - I was thinking that the inclusion of stgt in ofed was wrong 
from the first place - but my opinion wasn't taken...

Not that everything is working and in perfect condition - but you have 
jumped too early to conclusions... at least some of the people that can 
help you were on their Jewish Passover vacation when this thread started 
(April 10th) and only today are back in the office - lets get this 
debugged through the stgt target and open-iscsi initiator maintainers 
and mailing list - starting with stgt - see you there...
