There was an article about this in _Linux Journal_ last year: 
"Encapsulating IP using SCSI" by Ben Elliston, August 1998, pp 60-62.
He mentions the existence of RFC 2143.  From the article, I get the 
impression that it's still in the early development stages, but that 
was almost a year ago.  In any event, if you're interested in pursuing
this, you might want to talk to the author (bje@cygnus.com).
