You would have to designate one server on each site as a Bacula storage daemon with the local NAS as it's storage. Backup to file is no problem at all. > - ... and of course - the data must not travel across the WAN-links If you back up to a storage daemon on site, the only data going to the central point (director) would be the catalog data (i.e. the "index" of what was backed up from/to where and so on) going into a database.
