Hi,
From what level want you get information about running jobs? (bconsole,
database).
I think that there is easy way to do this from database level. You may
run below SQL query:
SELECT COUNT(job.name) FROM job WHERE job.jobstatus IN ('C','R');
Above SQL query may be called from bconsole level as well. For example
by using sql bconsole command. It allows to call SQL queries from
bconsole level but then you will need to use additional tools for
strings operations (sed, awk, etc.).
For writing script purpose here you are examples usage bconsole requests
in shell scripts:
http://bacula.org/5.2.x-manuals/en/console/console/Bacula_Console.html#SECTION0028
Thanks. The SQL is what I needed, I already have scripts which are
querying the database for other info.
Now has the mailinglist archive a lost post in this thread
that can people read in the discussion order.
Please reply below the text.

You may remember my posts starting mid February - it took a while but it also turns out both drives in my device had failed, so they've been replaced. It's taken 11 days so far to get to tape 30 out of 35, and ... an i/o error has occured. bscan: bscan.c:650 Could not find Job for SessId=9 SessTime=1358880703 record. 14-Apr 17:47 bscan JobId 0: Error: block.c:1004 Read error on fd=3 at file:blk 1202:13403 on device LTO5-0 (/dev/st0). ERR=Input/output error. Bacula status: file=1202 block=13403 Device status: ONLINE IM_REP_EN file=1202 block=-1 The bscan process is still running. Currently 'mt -f /dev/st0 status' is returning /dev/st0: Device or resource busy. Assuming I can get the tape 30 in the drive working again, how do I proceed? Do I return to the bscan process and hit 'enter' to see if it will start again from tape 30? Do I kill the bscan process and start again from tape 30? Can I assume that whatever it finds on tape will be added to whatever's been added to the database so far? Or do I have to start from scratch?! I hope not!!! I think^Wassume that bscan can/SHOULD handle a single tape cartridge. This is the command line the original poster shared with us on 2013-04-02 ./bscan -b /bacula/bscanVolsBootstrap.bsr -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf -v -s -m /dev/st0 The tricky part might in the high tech stuff behind /dev/st0. If /dev/st0 is simple tape drive, it will scan a single tape. However if /dev/st0 is a tape library, expect that is goes through _all_ tapes. So check what kind of hardware your /dev/st0 is. In other words: I understand the wish to avoid thirty tapes again, but I'm not familar with bscan, neither known what /dev/st0 the OP has.

Total backup size is about 2TB. For Bacula server I'm thinking to buy Dell PE R520 with 24TB internal storage (8x 3TB disks) and use virtual tapes. Hi Peter. First, you're going to want some RAID level on that server and RAID0 is not (IMHO) RAID at all. :) At a minimum you're going to want to set up (for example) RAID5 in the server which will give you a maximum of 7 x 3 = 21 TB since the equivalent of 1 full drive is used for parity, spread across all of the drives in a RAID5 array. Having said that, RAID5 does not have the best write speeds, but other RAID levels that will give more redundancy and better write speeds will use significantly more drives and give you less total storage. You may need to spend some time to consider your redundancy and read/write throughput requirements. Also, you will generally want to configure at least one drive as a hot spare so the RAID controller can automatically and immediately fail over to it in the case of a drive failure in the array. So that takes away at least 3 more TB, so now your down to 18TB total storage with a minimally configured RAID5 array with 1 hot spare. Just some things to consider. :) Another thing to consider is that with large capacity drives (3 TB) combined into large RAID-5 arrays there is an increased likelihood of a catastrophic array failure during an array rebuild due to an initial drive failure. For this reason, RAID-6 would be preferred for such large arrays. Reliability of large RAID arrays is one of the motivations behind raidz3 (triple-parity redundancy) in ZFS. See, e.g., http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=1670144 for details. Thanks for the advice on RAID configuration. Now we can go back to 24TB internal storage (8x 3TB disks) and use virtual tapes. so (cheap) disks as alternative to backup tapes.

Re: [Bacula-users] Manage disk space used by Bacula
Op 2013-03-07 om 22:53 schreef artakami: Hi I am currently using Bacula 5.2.12 and I am having problem with controlling disk space. It seems like bacula does not overwrite old data in backup files until it fills up whole disk space. I would like to know if anybody else had/having same problem Yes of course does the same problem occure, after all it is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_september and how did they get over it? Take some time to read this e-mail. Bacula can write backup data to both tape and disk. There is much shared programming code in writing to tape and disk. That is made possible due a tape cardridge equivalent for disk backup named Volume. Where the original poster speaks about backup files, shoud it be Volumes and should think tape cardridges. Having multiple Volumes ( tapes ) is important. Setting the Volume size ( tape size ) is done with 'Maximum Volume Size ='. So slice the disk with Volumes. Next thing is telling Bacula how long it should keep content on a volume. Having a full backupdisk is now not a problem anymore. (In fact it is good to have backupdisk full with volumes.) Having not enough volumes ( having not enough virtual tapes ) is a problem. Solution can be either more disk space for more volumes ( buy more tapes ), or re-use a volume (a tape) quicker.

Re: [Bacula-users] Job canceling tip
Op 2013-03-04 om 02:44 schreef Dan Langille:
I discovered this clever idea this morning. Say you want to cancel a few
jobs. Here's an easy way:
*cancel
Select Job:
1: JobId=122926 Job=gelt.2013-03-03_05.55.03_02
2: JobId=122927 Job=gelt_freshports_dev.2013-03-03_05.55.03_03
3: JobId=122928 Job=gelt_wordpress_websites.2013-03-03_05.55.03_04
4: JobId=122930 Job=nyi_basic.2013-03-03_05.55.03_06
[snip]
36: JobId=122968 Job=kraken.2013-03-03_18.00.51_46
37: JobId=122969 Job=ngaio.2013-03-03_18.00.52_47
38: JobId=122971 Job=nyi_maildir.2013-03-03_22.00.00_51
39: JobId=122972 Job=dent.2013-03-03_23.30.00_53
40: JobId=122973 Job=nyi_maildir.2013-03-04_00.00.00_54
Choose Job to cancel (1-40): .
Selection aborted, nothing done.
You abort out of that, and then you can copy/cancel the JobId= text from
above, like this:
*cancel yes JobId=122973
JobId 122973, Job nyi_maildir.2013-03-04_00.00.00_54 marked to be canceled.
*cancel yes JobId=122971
JobId 122971, Job nyi_maildir.2013-03-03_22.00.00_51 marked to be canceled.
You have messages.
*
I find this much easier than scanning the cancel list multiple times and
entering the number.
Thank you for the tip. I want to share another.
It is about canceling multiple jobs. Execute from shell
for i in {17..21} ; do echo cancel yes jobid=404${i} | bconsole ; done
Five jobs, 40417-40421, will be canceled.

Hello Bacula users, As a happy user of Bacula, the essential backup and restore solution, I now looking for graphical presentation software. Preferable webbased. What I would like have is a single picture that shows the exit status of all FD jobs being run the last N days. Ideal would be a wall with tiles where each tile contains the exit status. Either a row or a column foreach scheduled job. After N days ( each day a scheduled job ) is the status of N+1 days ago gone. When all jobs where succesfull is the wall complete green. A failing job on a FD will make a tile red. Continues failing job will make a column (or row) of tiles red. Clicking on a (red) tile should show more information about the Job. Repairing a FD job will get the wall complete green again. Looking at http://wiki.bacula.org/doku.php?id=3rd_party_addons didn't show software that allready has a wall overview.

AFAIK it is something along select ClientId, Name from Client order by ClientId ; delete from Client where Name = 'your_no_longer_existing_client' ; Yes, those are database actions. They can be performed from `bconsole` with the command `sqlquery`.

As an an alternative, I proposed to Bacula Systems to offer their Windows Enterprise binaries as a service to the Community. They agreed, and have chosen a price that is designed to simply cover the costs of producing and distributing those binaries. You can now obtain these Bacula Enterprise Windows binaries from Bacula Systems SA by clicking on the following link http://www.baculasystems.com/windows-binaries-for-bacula-community-users. These binaries allow you to continue using the Bacula community version, while keeping Bacula well integrated into your Windows environment. These binaries contain the Windows File daemons only. As was previously the case for the Community binaries, the Windows Storage daemon and Director are not provided. Installers for both 32 and 64 bit binaries is included in the offer. The extra Enterprise Windows plugins are in separate packages and are not part of this offering. The support for any problems will be handled through the Community Bugs database. Hello two questions about the Windows binaries: - Is it correct that the fee is intended for the right of 90 days downloads/updates? - Is it possible to get something other than PayPal for payment and list the payment options at start?

Hello Bacula Users,
Where I don't want to backup logfiles,
I do want to restore empty log directory trees.
How to define a FileSet that matches
find /var/log -type d
You might try a wildfile directive which matches *all* files for
exclusion. As it should only be applied to files the directories
should not be affected.
I couldn't write that into a file set definition.
My efforts would bring me all the log files :-(
| *estimate job=
| Using Catalog MyCatalog
| Connecting to Client ***-fd at :9102
| 2000 OK estimate files=684277 bytes=47,077,206,076
| *reload
| *estimate job=
| Using Catalog MyCatalog
| Connecting to Client ***-fd at :9102
| 2000 OK estimate files=685768 bytes=50,348,262,388
Also I did spend time on another approach.
It involves an action at client side. In the bash shell I did
for D in $( find /var/log -type d ); do echo but not all the log files in
it $D/.restorethislogdirectory; do
The result is like
| # find /var/log -name .restorethislogdirectory | tail -n 6
| /var/log/pm/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/cups/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/news/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/httpd/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/puppet/.restorethislogdirectory
| /var/log/prelink/.restorethislogdirectory
And at Bacula server side had I a fileset like
| FileSet { Name = rootbootvar
| Include {
| Options {
| signature = MD5
| }
| File = /
| File = /boot
| File = /var
| File = /var/spool/cron
| }
| Exclude {
| File = /proc
| File = /tmp
| File = /var/log
| File = /var/spool
| File = /.journal
| File = /.fsck
| }
| }
And did change that into
| FileSet { Name = rootbootvar
| Include {
| Options {
| signature = MD5
| }
| File = /
| File = /boot
| File = /var
| File = /var/spool/cron
| }
| Exclude {
| Options {
| Exclude = no
| Wild = /var/log/*/.restorethislogdirectory
| }
| File = /proc
| File = /tmp
| File = /var/log
| File = /var/spool
| File = /.journal
| File = /.fsck
| }
| }
But with no effect.
Other attempts with
| Wild = /var/log/*/.restorethislogdirectory
couldn't persuade Bacula to backup those hidden files.
More hints how to get /var/log directories during restore
are very welcome

Re: [Bacula-users] Backup Job doesn't get executed
Op 20121017 om 17:15 schreef Jürgen Ecker: Hallo, Hello in english, Ich habe hier ein seltsames Problem. Sobald ich den bacula-director Dienst neustarte führt mir Bacula keine Jobs mehr aus. Translated: No jobs are executed after director restart. Wenn sie abgebrochen würden, dann hätte ich wenigstens einen Anhaltspunkt, aber so ist leider überhaupt nichts ersichtlich. Auch das Log liefert mir keinerlei Infos. Erst nach einem Serverneustart werden wieder Jobs ausgeführt. Ich hatte schon eine Dienstabhängigkeit in Verdacht, konnte aber auch hier nichts entdecken. Strange, but it made me curious. I would like to get more information about it. You allready told that the bacula logging didn't provide clue to you. Could it be that you only checked for job errors? I wonder if there are other warning and/or errors, such as unable to reconnect to database When in 'bconsole' * What is the output of 'show jobs' * What is the output of 'status director' Es handelt sich hier um ein Ubuntu 12.04 LTS mit Bacula 5.0.2-2.2+squeeze1.

Re: [Bacula-users] Network error with FD during Backup: ERR=Connection reset by peer
Op 20121002 om 12:15 schreef DAHLBOKUM Markus (FPT INDUSTRIAL): bigsnip/ I have added the heartbeat interval on all daemons, but no change. The _all_ deamons involved is important. bigsnip/ Markus I now could check if bacula fd to sd connection timed out because of the network switches. This was not the case. My job still cancels. What I did now was to check if the heartbeat is really working. So I installed wireshark and tracked my network connections. I see my traymonitor connecting every 5 sec to dir, sd and fd. But I can’t see any heartbeat between my two servers. There should be something every 5 sec, too. Can someone tell me how and when the heartbeat should occur? AFAIK is it a keep alive signal, which is needed when there is no data transfer. That idle occurs shortly afther job start. It is when the file deamon is searching / collecting the files that the bacula-dir requested. Is it active when no job is running? No, it comes only in action during a job's idle time. Heartbeat is silent when there no interaction with a bacula-fd. In my config I set the following line for dir, sd and fd: Heartbeat Interval = 5 This should result in a heartbeat every 5 sec? Could be. I imagine that there _could be_ a minimal (usefull) interval, say twenty seconds. That 20 is a value I made up to illustrate why the heartbeat isn't visible every five seconds by Wireshark. In our Bacula configuration did the addition 'Heartbeat Interval = 60' solve time out issues. I had no need to sniff them. I’m thankful for every help I can get.

So 2 moments (during backup or outside backup) on 2 Bacula compoments ( storage deamon and file deamon ) on the VMs on 2 physical hosts. Yes, that means that I assume the VMware hosts have a 'vmstat' command. That is because I'm not familair with VMware, I'm from the Xen world :-) I have a physical machine that is a Vmware ESX node wich hosts only one vm, the one with bacula-director, bacula-sd and bacula-fd (called bacula-server), this vm has an RDM with the fibre channel storage where the volumes partition is mounted. Then I have all my clients (some are physycal machines and others are vms in other ESX nodes) with bacula-fd that are backed up. When I manually run a job to backup one of these clients in bacula-server I can see (with the command htop) that bacula-sd is using 100% of the cpu, I also noted that the backup starts at around 4MB/s and What I see for the 'htop' over here, is that there seen to be information in the color of cpu usage. It would interresting to see how 100% CPU usage is divide in system, user and I/O wait. after some time it is around 300KB/s. If I simple send the same files to be backed up with scp for example the transfer goes around 100MB/s. The vms don't have vmstat, I use linux own commands. AFAIK is 'vmstat' default installed on every Linux and Unix system. One thing I noted now, in the vm htop says that 100% cpu is used and actually the machine is very slow when backing up so I think this value is accurate but in VSphere Client in the performance chart it says that the vm is using only 400Mhz of the 5000Mhz that were allocated, but the node cpu usage is low so I don't know why it isn't aloccating more MHZ to the bacula-server. How VMware allocates CPU cycles to VMs is beyond my current knowledge (and off-topic on the bacula user mailinglist ) I installed vmstat, I can't do vmstat during non backup time because it is currently backing up my mail server, about 200gb, it is doing this for almost 15h: vmstat 2 5 during backing-up on the bacula-server (director, storagedaemon) procs ---memory-- ---swap-- -io -system-- cpu r b swpd free buff cache si sobibo in cs us sy id wa 3 0 0 16576 15592 176327200105527 0 8 92 0 1 0 0 15916 15592 176396400 0 0 204 49 1 50 49 0 2 0 0 16812 15588 176299600 0 2 172 72 1 78 21 0 2 0 0 17820 15604 176734800 018 193 114 3 66 32 0 1 0 0 16296 15604 176992400 0 0 277 29 0 55 45 0 That is _not_ 100% CPU usage, there was at least 20% idle time. vmstat 2 5 during backing-up on the physical mail-server (filedaemon) procs ---memory-- ---swap-- -io -system-- cpu r b swpd free buff cache si sobibo in cs us sy id wa 0 0 16824 38496 143856 501942400454234 1 0 98 1 0 0 16824 30928 143868 502000400 336 434 1328 981 1 1 96 2 2 0 16824 35844 143868 502076800 458 116 1121 635 0 1 99 0 0 0 16824 32180 143876

In others words: The provided list can read as One physical computer with fibre channel disk hosts all the VMs. If it is so, then tell so. Otherwise eloborate the setup, the design. One question: can vmware tools have any influence in this case? From what I know vmware tools is mainly for better graphics performance isn't it? I din't installed it. There could also be beter disk drivers. The virtio drivers come to mind. Back to During a backup I can see bacula-sd using 100% cpu, And where did you see the 100%? ( Which tool was used to read that performance valule? ) I would like to see the output of vmstat 2 5 during non-back-up-time and also the output of vmstat 2 5 during back-up-time.

So 2 moments (during backup or outside backup) on 2 Bacula compoments ( storage deamon and file deamon ) on the VMs on 2 physical hosts. Yes, that means that I assume the VMware hosts have a 'vmstat' command.

Tim,
Hello Mailinglist,
It would be the same sort of setup in a local environment, but you would be
exchanging hostnames/local ip's with external ip's. Obviously, allowing
access through your firewall. Also, make sure you actually have a connection
between server and client on port 9102. You would still need to change your
bacula config files accordingly too.
Are they windows or linux clients?
Linux client it would look something like this in the bacula-dir.conf - then
you would have to setup storage configurations, etc.

Your main RegexDir patterns are wrong: /home/[0-9]* matches everything
starting with /home/ because of the definition of * in a regex. You
probably want wilddir = /home/[0-9]* instead.
Also, you should wild = * instead of RegexDir = .*.
__Martin
Thank you for the suggestions. Using wilddir on the includes works much
better than the RegexDir. I did find that using wild = * on the
excludes was problematic. I'd backup the directories, but none of the
files. I've switched to using wilddir for the excludes, too, which adds a
level of self-documentation to the fileset. A working example shows the
changes and I just adjust the wilddir statements for the fileset as needed.
FileSet {
Name = home_dirs1 Set
# Capture /home/[0-9]*
Include {
Options {
signature = MD5
wilddir = /home/[0-9]*

Options {
wilddir = /home/[a-z]*
wilddir = /home/[A-Z]*

Bacula now has two (2) Storage Devices to backup to.
The 1st 1.5TB has just started been used and has only used about 20% of the
total hard Drive Capacity, the volumes that I created were set to be
expired
, recycled and auto prunes so that the drives don't run out of space when
the file server size starts to increase.
1. How will Bacula Treat/Handle 2nd New Drive that I've just added?
2. Will the new drive only be used when the 1st drive has reached its
full capacity?
3. Can I Schedule backups' to the New 1TB drive ONLY?
4. When adding new drives for backups what are the best practices when
it comes on to Bacula
I've never used CentOS, but on every other linux/BSD systems I've never deal
directly with drives. The notion of having the userland programs deal directly
with hard drives is almost perverse, lol.
Here's what I do, and I know this doesn't directly address your question, but
it's food for thought if nothing else:
I put a file system on the hard drive and mount them to a location, say
'/home/bacula/volumes' and have bacula backup to file based volumes just like
your original disk.
Here has bacula-sd.conf these lines
Device {
Name = FileStorage
Media Type = File
Archive Device = /srv/bacula/pool00
In the directory /srv/bacula/pool00 are symbolic links like
lrwxrwxrwx 1 v467 - ../d04/v467
lrwxrwxrwx 1 v468 - ../d04/v468
lrwxrwxrwx 1 v325 - ../d06/v325
lrwxrwxrwx 1 v326 - ../d06/v326
Under /srv/bacula are directories like d04, d05, d06
those are used as mountpoints for the disks. Partial output of `mount`
/dev/sdb1 on /srv/bacula/d04 type ext3 (rw)
/dev/sdc1 on /srv/bacula/d05 type ext3 (rw)
/dev/sdd1 on /srv/bacula/d06 type ext3 (rw)
In directory /srv/bacula/d06, being disk /dev/sdd1,
are the actual bacula volumes.

In bacula-sd.conf, your director's password has to match the Storage's

Also, next time it starts failing, run bconsole -d 100 while the Director is running with setdebug, so the outputs of both sides can be compared. __Martin Hello, ~ In looking at the output above, I have a similar comment to Martin about bat and bconsole. First, you should understand that currently the Director only has a concept of a *single* console. When you run with bat, it puts the console in gui mode, and so if you are running any bconsoles at the same time and you just happen to get some output, you will probably get stuff destined for bat, which will completely confuse bconsole. Moral of the story. Don't run multiple bconsoles if possible because you probably will get output mixed between them, and above all don't run bconsole at the same time as bat or they both will probably get confused particularly bconsole. bconsole won't have any idea how to handle signals destined for bat. Oops. I have default a bconsole open in my screen[1] session. And now I know that it might grab / get data from another bconsole ... If I recall correct, I keep the bconsole session open to capture messages. Otherwise I get loads of job messages on opening a bconsole. That is with version 2.4.4 From another posting: } Someone (not me) added Maximum Console Connections, which defaults } to 20, but I am not 100% sure how it interacts with Maximum Concurrent } Jobs.

Re: [Bacula-users] bconsole with json
Op 20111212 om 18:08 schreef Hugo Letemplier: Hello, I have some project ideas. If people like it, maybe it can be developed in next bacula versions. [ too many ideas for in a single post ] Idea --- Having a programming interface that can talk like bconsole. It's not always easy to talk to another shell and bconsole uses As I understood, python integration in bacula is effective only on a bacula event. Please correct me if I am wrong. I created a library in python (via pexpect) in order to have an interface for my scripts. It's talking to bconsole and directly to the catalog (read only). I can give this python lib to anyone but I am not a very good programmer so many things may need to be revisited. It allowed me to write many scripts (management, monitoring, pruning…) including the one that run my copy jobs that is mentioned at the beginning. A few weeks ago I had the idea to clone bconsole into a json bconsole. It would mostly be a rewrite of the output functions so that the output would be in json ( see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Json and RFC 4627 for details ) That way it would be more easy to give bconsole a webinterface. I abandon the idea as I had no clue how to add session stuff so that a web request would be answered to the right connection. Now just only telling about it in the hope to spark someone more in the need for a webinterface then me. Thank you in advance for your comments about theses ideas. If someone is interested I will be happy to share parts of my python code.

Do you have your bacula SD configured to use address 127.0.0.1 or localhost. Neither of these will work if you want to use bacula as a Network backup program.. Non, i've deleted the 127.0.0.1 adress on the SDAdress. I'm gone test with domain name, like toto.example.org Because, i've put domain name for my SD client, and IP for the Server and SD. As my client has a dynamic IP, i used dyndns, so i've got a domain name. And a public IP for the Server. Back to: I can't telnet from the client on the server only on port 9103. Fix that. Go to the client: Have a working telnet client program. Verify that the telnet programm actually works. Example given, on a host that response to port 22: $ telnet shell.xs4all.nl 22 Trying 194.109.21.8... Connected to shell.xs4all.nl. Escape character is '^]'.

Goodevening,
I got a little problem: I have a bacula director on a server with two
NIC interfaces, each of one got a different subnet: 172.20.60.0/24 and
172.20.61.0/24 and I could only use a single LTO-4 tape reader.
Now, the problem is howto configure storage section in director
configuration file, because the differnt client (from the two nets)
should receive two different IP to contact SD.
Now I have tried this storage config:
Storage {
Name = TAPECORP
Address = 172.20.60.1
SDPort = 9103
Password = foobar1
Device = TAPE
Media Type = LTO-4
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
}
Storage {
Name = TAPECUST
Address = 172.20.61.1
SDPort = 9103
Password = foobar2
Device = TAPE
Media Type = LTO-4
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
}
172.20.60.1 and 172.20.61.1 are, respectively, the IPs of BaculaDIR/SD
for each net (DIR and SD are located onto the same physical server).
Is it the right way to configure it?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions,
Simone
Hi Simone.
The way I see it, you put 0.0.0.0 on the listening IP of the daemons
that would be receiving connections from more than one network and it
will listen on both interfaces. If the _name_ and password of the
other end matches, they will comunicate.
I have mine set this way (and it's confirmed working), and I have a
client in a different network (dir and sd on the same machine):
In bacula-dir.conf:
Director {
...
DirAddress = 0.0.0.0
DirPort = 9101
...
}
In bacula-sd.conf
Storage {
...
SDAddress = 0.0.0.0
SDPort = 9103
...
}
In bacula-fd.conf:
FileDaemon {
...
FDAddress = 0.0.0.0
FDport = 9102
...
}
These are the addresses that they will listen on, not to be confused
with the addresses where to connect to indicated in the other daemons.

The best option is to use
Address = baculaserver
and then use the resolver (DNS or /etc/hosts) to map baculaserver to the
correct IP address on each machine.
__Martin
That is on the clients, indeed the best option is that.
But he was talking about on which IP the server would listen (from
what I could understand), and the 0.0.0.0 address will make it listen
on all interfaces.
Note that I mean client and server from the TCP connection
perspective, not bacula client and bacula server.

I like postgres and that's what I kept selecting. Is the apt-get or aptitude convenience that people like or is there an aversion to compiling? It is easy and you have so many configure options to select from. Mehma Thanks for the joke. If it was flame bait, then also thank you.
