Bacula expects DIR-to-FD and FD-to-SD TCP connections to persist for the duration of a job. If either is dropped it will cause the job to cancel. As a result, Bacula is not very tolerant of network problems. Since it appears to be the Windows Server machines dropping the connection due to the glitch, if there is a solution it will be in the Windows networking config, possibly in the NIC's driver settings. Perhaps RHEL is more tolerant of the glitch or perhaps it is a hardware difference in the NICs. Nevertheless, in general such network glitches cause problems for Bacula regardless of OS. > Respectfully, > Craig > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Attend Shape: An AT&T Tech Expo July 15-16.
