Hi @ all Bacula users,

I am using Bacula for several year now and I am really satisfied with it.
But now I have a strange Problem. I am not sure but I think it first 
occurred since I updated from
version 1.36 to 1.38 . Now I am running 1.38.11
My Bacula has to backup several WinXP clients over night.
When the client runs, there is no problem and the backup is done properly.
But if the users switch off their clients ( what happen often, 
unfortunately ) the duration of the timeout depends on the IP-Subnet the 
client is in .
I have the following Timeout settings in the bacula-dir.conf

 FD Connect Timeout = 5 minutes
 SD Connect Timeout = 5 minutes

If the Client is in the same IP-Subnet as the Bacula-director, the 
director tells:

24-Oct 08:43 Bacula-dir: Start Backup JobId 3040,

Timeout after 6 and a half minutes,ERR=No route to host ; thats OK.
But if the Client resides in a different IP-Subnet is says:

Timeout after 1 hour and 40 minutes, ERR=Connection timed out; thats a 
little bit long.

I have observed many log entries and its always the same: same subnet => 
6 m different subnet =>1:40 h.
There is no packet filtering between the subnets.

Has anyone experienced an behavior like that? Has anyone a hint for me 
how to shorten this 1:40 h timeout.

Thank you for your help.

Marc
