Bacula shouldn't know about the Mysql root password -- Bacula's Mysql user is "bacula" in your config, so you need to ensure that that user exists in the Mysql system and has the same password as in our Catalog resource (see Bacula manual and mysqladmin).

That's probably correct, but these passwords are used when connecting between the Bacula daemons, not with the Mysql. __Martin ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
