An inverse scattering problem is considered for a discontinuous Sturm-Liouville equation
on the half-line 
with a linear spectral parameter in the boundary condition. The scattering data of
the problem are defined and a new fundamental equation is derived, which is different
from the classical Marchenko equation. With help of this fundamental equation, in
terms of the scattering data, the potential is recovered uniquely.
