Can you test this @jr551 I have a working build but nothing to test to connect to. https://github.com/getsolus/packages/pull/3082

Someone else feel free to tackle this. I don’t have the time now.

Guys, I managed to correctly build the package. I personally use iSCSI at work. At the moment, I have ready-to-use build scripts in the form of three packages:

• openslp
• open-isns
• open-iscsi

I'm ready to maintain the packages.

In the near future, I'll adapt the file structure for the Solus architecture. I'll have to write patches.
