Hello,

I definitly want to use compression for backups on disk.

It works pretty well, except for:
- FIFOs
- Windows clients.

I haven't seen any information about this specific cases.

Here comes a part of the configuration in the case you see anything wrong.

The "full" FileSet has a good compression rate, while the "mysql-dump"
FileSet report as the following:
  Software Compression:   None

bacula-dir.conf:
[...]
FileSet {
  Name = full
  Include {
    @/etc/bacula/bacula-dir-fileset-common-include-options.conf
    File = /
  }
  Exclude {
    @/etc/bacula/bacula-dir-fileset-linux-exclude-files.conf
  }
}

FileSet {
  Name = mysql-dump
  Include {
    @/etc/bacula/bacula-dir-fileset-common-include-options.conf
    Options { readfifo = yes }
    File = /tmp/bacula-mysql-fifo
  }
}

FileSet {
  Name = windows-file-set
  Include {
    @/etc/bacula/bacula-dir-fileset-common-include-options.conf
    @/etc/bacula/bacula-dir-fileset-windows-include-options.conf
    File = c:/
  }
  Exclude {
  }
}

[...]

/etc/bacula/bacula-dir-fileset-common-include-options.conf :
Options {
  signature = MD5
  compression = GZIP
  onefs = no
  fstype = reiserfs
  fstype = ext2
}

bacula-dir-fileset-linux-exclude-files.conf: no interesting content.
bacula-dir-fileset-windows-include-options.conf: no interesting content.

Thank you for your help.
