I had similar problems as Darren, but I finally managed to connect the
Initiator on Beta7 to a target on Beta7, without authentication.

However, when I turn on authentication I get the following log entries
on the target server:

2014-05-28T11:17:52.376035+02:00 linux-co7n kernel: [  650.374639]
Initiator is requesting CSG: 1, has not been successfully
authenticated, and the Target is enforcing iSCSI Authentication, login
failed.


2014-05-28T11:17:52.376056+02:00 linux-co7n kernel: [  650.374652]
iSCSI Login negotiation failed.

As I wasn't sure if this is because I mismatched outgoing and incoming
on target and initiator, I simply used the same username and password
on all - but the result is above.

Any suggestions are welcome, or is this considered a bug I should report?

Kind regards,

Björn
