To answer your questions. The software in question is Bacula. A password is stored in the client's and server (director's) configuration. Each client should have its own password that the directory must also know. The password is normal ASCII inside a typical configuration file.
In this case I am using Core rather than Enterprise. I have used remote scalars in the past. The results were very disappointing and it is my understanding that remote scalars have not been fixed in this release of Enterprise. -- Neil Watson Linux/UNIX Consultant http://watson-wilson.ca _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
