Hello! i try to backup a remote w2k server using the "Run Before Job" parameter to build a ssh tunnel to the bacula-fd on the remote server with the following script
backup:~# cat /etc/bacula/scripts/mk_ssh2w2k.sh #!/bin/bash # dig a tunnel to the remote office server start-stop-daemon --start -b --exec /usr/bin/ssh -- -N -2 -o "StrictHostKeyChecking no" -i /etc/bacula/bacula-ssh-key -L 9112:192.168.100.100:9102 [EMAIL PROTECTED] exit 0 and the following job definition: Job { Name = "srv-remote" Type = Backup Client = srv-remote FileSet = "Full Set Windows" Schedule = "WeeklyCycle" Storage = FileStorage-srv-remote Messages = Standard Pool = Default Full Backup Pool = File-Full-Pool Incremental Backup Pool = File-Inc-Pool Differential Backup Pool = File-Diff-Pool Write Bootstrap = "/var/lib/bacula/srv-remote.bsr" Run Before Job = "/etc/bacula/scripts/mk_ssh2w2k.sh" Run After Job = "/etc/bacula/scripts/rm_ssh2w2k.sh" } for the client: Client { Name = srv-remote Address = local-backupserver FDPort = 9112 Catalog = MyCatalog Password = "dir-pass" File Retention = 60 days Job Retention = 6 months AutoPrune = yes } the script builds the tunnel succesfull (but only with using start-stop-daemon, nohup doesn't work...), but i get the following messages on the director: 18-Mar 15:49 local-backupserver: No prior Full backup Job record found. 18-Mar 15:49 local-backupserver: No prior or suitable Full backup found. Doing FULL backup. 18-Mar 15:49 local-backupserver: Start Backup JobId 39, Job=srv-remote.2005-03-18_15.49.17 18-Mar 15:48 srv-remote: srv-remote.2005-03-18_15.49.17 Fatal error: Failed to connect to Storage daemon: local-backupserver:9103 18-Mar 15:48 srv-remote: srv-remote.2005-03-18_15.49.17 Error: ..\lib \../../lib/bnet.c:685 gethostbyname() for host "local-backupserver" failed: ERR=Authoritative answer for host not found. 18-Mar 15:49 local-backupserver: srv-remote.2005-03-18_15.49.17 Fatal error: Socket error from Filed on Storage command: ERR=No data available hm. which application want's to connect to the bacula-sd which is running at the same machine as the director (local-bachupserver:9103): the director or the bacula-fd on the remote w2k server to which the director connects via the ssh tunnel? on the w2k server the name local-backupserver is not known nor kan the bacula-sd be reached through the (2) firewalls, one local and one remote... how can i setup a backup system to a remote system with ssh tunnels? or is this not possible with bacula? thx for any hint, Chris ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
