Using bacula version 2.0.3 on the client and the server 
can achieve perfect backups when these machines are on the same internal 
network however...... 

....I am tring to set bacula up to backup a remote machine that is on the other 
side of of a firewall. I have read and reread the bacula docs the ipf docs and 
the ipnat docs and think i understand what should be done. However it does not 
seem to work please help. 

******I have added the following lines to the ipf.rules file of the director 
machine 

pass out quick on cdce0 proto tcp from any to any port = 9101 flags S keep 
state 
pass out quick on cdce0 proto tcp from any to any port = 9102 flags S keep 
state 
pass out quick on cdce0 proto tcp from any to any port = 9103 flags S keep 
state 

******next i added the following to the ipf.rules file of the server machine 
that provides a firewall and nat for the fd machine. 

pass in quick on xl0 proto tcp from any to any port = 9102 flags S keep state 

******* then i have added the following ipnat rules to hopefully redirect port 
9102 to the desired machine behind the firewall running the file daemon 

rdr xl0 0/32 port 9102 -> 192.168.0.15 port 9102 

*******I believe if have all the correct entries in the director and file 
daemon and can telnet to the the remote port 

[EMAIL PROTECTED] # telnet computerking.ca 9102 
Trying 68.146.204.152... 
Connected to computerking.ca. 
Escape character is '^]'. 

*****but when i try to connect to the client from bconsole i always get the 
dreaded auth error. please please please help as this has become a very 
complicated endeavor and i am a bit lost as to what to try next.
