Thanks Bill, much appreciated. I assume adding password and shell to bacula user does not cause any harm to the bacula functionality
Hello, It will not harm bacula functionality but I doubt you need to do that. If you need some commands to be executed by user bacula from shell scripts, I would recommend utilizing sudo command. In addition to what Bill said, if you just need to become bacula user temporary, you could use the command: su -s /bin/bash - bacula It is useful when you want to check if the user can actually access some file or directory or when debugging bacula services.
