hi all...

i just installed bacula on a server and a remote client machine. works
great. here are few things i didn't find in the docs....

1. when i have to restore files from a remote client like this:

Job {
  Name = "RestoreRemote"
  Type = Restore
  Client=remote-fd
  FileSet="Full Set"
  Storage = DDS-3
  Pool = Default
  Messages = Standard
  Where = /tmp/bacula-restores
}

bacula is restoring them under tmp on the remote client?!!. is there a way
i can restore them under /tmp on the dir/server machine? like in case the
remote client doesn't exist anymore - where will the restored files show
up?!

2. also when restoring the instructions say that in file selection mode i
can select (only) the files i want to restore by marking or unmarking
them. but it doesn't say how. so far i've been able to do just 'restore
all'...

3. in the Restore job definition above can i specify
Client=remote-fd,local-fd,local2-id
or
Client=remote-fd local-fd local2-id
(or similar) for more than one client when i want to restore the files in
the same location?

and 4. i did a full backup for the remote client. then created a new file
in the already backed up directory. did an incremental backup. bacula
picked up the new file. cool. then i edited the same new file - which
changed its timestamp. did a new incremental backup. and a new restore.
the file was there but the change wasn't picked up.  why?



thanks....
