Zitat von David Pearce <[email protected]>:

We did some rearranging of our firewall and found an interesting issue. Our Bareos storage server is named "G". It reaches out to a client "C" and starts a backup. Then for reasons I don't understand, "C" opens a new connection and communicates with "G". Since "C" is in our DMZ, it can't make a connection unless we allow it so it fails until we add a rule allowing it.

Why would "C" need to open a new connection to "G"?

Thanks!

This is the standard behaviour of the client, it opens a connection to the SD :

You can use the passive client feature which is intended for the use case you describe
