Hello everyone, I am attempting to build Bacula on a Debian system. I am very much new at Bacula, I have been reading the tutorials past several days, and right now I am just doing testing on a secondary box before I mess with the primary. So if I screw something up, tis no big deal. I am familiar with Linux, but have just begun working with Debian (required for this project), so I can't say I know Debian inside and out.
When I was downloading the packages, I saw that there were .deb files. Are those not the Debian installer files? I don't recall seeing anything about Debian in the tutorials other then the fact it was a supported OS. Has anyone used them to install that could give me some pointers? Is it easier to install or more difficult? It's no big deal to rebuild from source (I have done it once already, but I screwed it up when tweaking it). So I can do it again, I am just trying out other methods so I know exactly what to do when I begin work on the the primary system. Also, I will be dumping the backups to a raid5 array, so if anyone has any comments, I would greatly appreciate hearing about what tends to work best. Thanks, ~Stack~ ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
