Dave,

Thanks for the reply. I'm running pmfirewall on an RH7 box. It also does my routing.

I removed the block from public 192.168.n.n but I still could not see the private server from the public. I set this up so long ago, I've forgotten a lot of the configs so I guess I need to do some snooping. Any hints why I still can't see the private server?


Does your server on the public side have a route in it's routing table to the 
private network?

Thanks again,
Rick Knight

Hi,
If your setup is like mine yes that's what you need to do. You'll also need to tell your firewall to let out port 9102 traffic as well i think. What firewall are you using?
Dave.


From a security standpoint, instead of simply opening port 9103, it would be a better idea to specify rules that will allow inbound traffic on 9103, only from the bacula clients, and destined for the bacula server.

Hi,

I've just finished upgrading from 1.34 to 1.38.1 and while I was at it, I moved Bacula form a server with a public IP (64.n.n.n) to a server with a private IP (192.168.n.n) that's behind (inside?) my firewall. I did this because I need to back up both servers and a workstation. Everything looked like it went fine until Bacula tried to back up the server on the public side. I get this error message...

22-Nov 11:42 my_public_server-linux-fd: My_Job-Linux.2005-11-22_05.31.43 Warning: bnet.c:852 Could not connect to Storage daemon on my_private_server-linux:9103. ERR=Connection timed out

I can see the the public server from the private side just fine, but I cannot see the private server from the public server. I assume I just need to tell my firewall to allow traffic to the private network 192.168.n.n on port 9103. Am I correct?

Thanks,
Rick Knight
