I've setup StarWind iSCSI Target v4.0 (Build 20090226, Win32) on a Windows Vista computer and created a image disk.

I've setup Windows 2008 Server and managed to connect to the StarWind Target, formated the disk as NTFS and it appears fine as a additional drive.

I've also setup the Windows Vista Iscsi target and this connects and displays as a additional drive, however if I create some files on the extra drive neither is displayed on the Windows 2008 server ???!!??

I'm pretty new so wondering whats wrong?


Thanks

and whole bunch of whitepapers about iSCSI and SAN technology in general :)
