Hi, we are using the Open Source and the Enterprise version of Bacula. We are also maintaining since years the port of Bacula on OpenBSD. The forum is for sure the wrong place to report a problem. When there is a problem, what can happen, then it should be reported as an issue on the bug tracker. As you maybe know, features from Bacula Enterprise are normally back ported to the OSS version. You can assume that the S3 is working on Enterprise.
On the other site, when there are enough people which help to test a new release, problems can be fixed before a final release. There is a mailing list, where people can get involved easily and help with testing, https://sourceforge.net/projects/bacula/lists/bacula-devel <https://sourceforge.net/projects/bacula/lists/bacula-devel> Unfortunately not many people get involved there. OpenBSD is not an official supported platform provided from Bacula Systems, but so far, when we was running in a problem, we found a helpful hand. We self did not had any demand for this plugin so far but we are using other plugins and our installations are from a handful servers up to a few PetaByte. The community should not be only a consumer but also a contributor and testing does not require any programming skills.
