Blog/Alpine Linux: scsi-tgt maintainer

From Forza's ramblings

Alpine Linux: scsi-tgt maintainer[edit | edit source]

The underside of an old IBM SCSI hard drive.

A few days ago I wrote Blog/iSCSI target in user-space about the user-space iSCSI target server.

The long-term Alpine Linux developer, psykose, who helped create the scsi-tgt package has unfortunately stepped down. I decided to help out and have taken over as maintainer for this package. Wish me luck ;)

For now, scsi-tgt can be found in edge/testing

The git repository is available at https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/tree/master/testing/scsi-tgt

tgt v1.0.87[edit | edit source]
