If I were to recover a failed machine, I would reinstall the OS, and then install bacula-fd using package system for my OS. Then go from there. I like the idea of the rescue-cd. It is attractive. But my money is on the "install-the-OS-first" method. When things have gone wrong, I want to use what I already know. -- Dan Langille : Software Developer looking for work my resume: http://www.freebsddiary.org/dan_langille.php _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
