Hi folks.
I'm rolling out my new Bacula network and I'm working on automating the
config process.
I already have a script on my Linux server using smbclient to pull the bacula-
fd.conf from the windows client, extract the password, and then configure
the client in bacula-dir.conf.
Sometimes, when the clients are installed, it doesn't set up the local monitor
entry, leaving the default values for the name and password. The Bacual
client then fails to start.
As part of my script above, I fix the bacula-fd.conf and push it back to the
windows client.
Does anyone know how once I've done this I can start the service on the
Windows client from my Linux server?
winexe can do this (in that it can do pretty much anything)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/winexe/
If you find a more elegent solution please do post it. With winexe you would
execute something like net start bacula-fd to start the service, but getting
success or failure from that operation makes it a bit messy.
