I don't know the Bacula's protocol for sure, but I guess "Hello" is a token the director uses when trying to establish a connection with a file daemon that is expected to listen at the spesific port. Something similar like HELO / EHLO to port 25 when opening a connection to a mail server. The Bacula Developer Manual could be your friend to find it out more closely. Do you get the same error message if you turn off the file daemon (or disconnect the network cable or...)? If that's the case, it looks like now the director does not get any reply from the file daemon either, and it could be a firewall (or some other networking) issue. If your client is running on a virtual machine on vmware, is vmware set for bridged networking and the ip address belongs to the virtual machine alone? Have you tried to port scan that ip, is there anyone listening at all in the port 9102? -- TiN ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
