hi Daniel,
the problem is probably that iscsi is deadlocked, so fetch 
	ftp://ftp/users/danny/freebsd/iscsi-2.1.tar.gz
cd /usr/src
tar xpzf /path-to-tar-file/iscsi-2.1.tar.gz
(cd sys/modules/iscsi/initiator; make; make install)
(cd sbin/iscontrol;make; make install)
probably the safest is now to reboot.

Let me know what happens.

obrigado (thanks?),
	danny
