This makes no sense to me at all. The USB devices attach to a USB bus, the whole notion of a SCSI bus for USB devices is as nothing more than an abstraction, and should be able to be arbitrarily changed in the USB stack any time you wish. In short, you aren't doing SCSI selections over a USB bus, so why should SCSI target IDs vs. host IDs matter? Aren't they just all mapped in the driver to the USB device anyway? -- Doug Ledford Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
