This is probably not a new question but I thought I'd ask any way.
Any one has any ideas how to stream ISO files over the network.
My setup includes:
1. DNS-323
2. MiniDLNA server
3. Samsung 6500 series TV
Thanks a lot in advance for any help you can provide...

You're right, it's not a new question. Did you try searching the forum first?

I did try to search the forum as well as the web but did not find a clear answer. Being a newbie I was hoping someone here who might be an expert might provide a complete solution (if there is such a thing) on how to implement this.

Also the subject was supposed to be "streaming" and not where my head was ("steaming") when I posted that question..

Steamed ISO files are delicious

It's possible, just not easy. From memory the steps are:
Install alt-f firmware (you will need something like alt-f because the tgt command needs a newer linux kernel than the dlink firmware provides)
Set up a debian squeeze chroot environment
Install tgt in the debian chroot environment (apt-get install tgt)
Make sure the iso file is someplace that the chroot environment can see it
Use tgt-setup-lun command to export the iso file as an iscsi lun (example: tgt-setup-lun -d myfile.iso -n myfile_cd -b cd)
Go to your host and set up the iscsi initiator to access the iscsi lun from the dns323
You should now see the iso as if it where a cd/dvd
Just a side note, it may work to use the AoE vblade server inside the debian chroot instead of the tgt iscsi target but I haven't tried that yet. However when I tested vblade before it was a good deal slower than the iscsi target.
