It seems that the path has changed to hklm\system\current control
set\services\ibsrp\Parameters. I can see it now. The current values are:

DebugFlags = ffffff
DebugLevel = 2

What should I put there in order to see the required logs?

BTW - maybe it's a good idea to put this info in the SRP wiki page.

I can see "Mellanox referenced SRP target" under "SCSI and RAID
controllers" in the device manager. Does it mean that the initiator
machine "sees" the SRP target? Anyway, it has the following error:

Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration
information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

Again, please tell me what should I do in order to supply more info
about it.

No, I'm using win 2003
