I need to connect a Win2008 R2 server to a iSCSI target and I'm supposed to use a CHAP user name that is different from the initiator name.

Technet says:

By default, the Microsoft iSCSI Initiator service uses the initiator node name as the CHAP username. You can override this action by passing a CHAP username to the login request.

Now my question is: How and where can I override this? At least using the GUI, I couldn't find a way to specify a CHAP user name.

When connecting to the target you have to select the "Advanced" button and then specify the name under the "Enable CHAP" log on" options.

    Thank you very much, pretty obvious now, argh! However it still didn't work this way, for whatever reason. It finally worked using the command-line tool: iscsicli QAddTargetPortal IP user password, the rest I could do successfully via the GUI.
