i haven't tried against an STMF target yet. its been on my list of TODO 
for trying the iscsi block backend but haven't gotten to it yet. it 
makes me a little sad to hear your having problems with it. i'll try to 
get to that soon but i've barely used STMF so it will most likely wait 
till i can get some time with a co-worker to help.
