It is obviously using gethostname() to lookup the INTERNAL address
of the director. It needs to lookup the external address.
Do I have to have 2 directors?
I'm assuming you have control over your own DNS. If you want it to
use the internal address, give it a hostname that resolves only to
the internal address. There's no reason why a host cannot have more
than one hostname.
I need more information to help further.
What is this job backing up? The external client? The internal?
It helps if you give us the configuration files so we can see for
ourselves.
I am not ignoring this just using it as a last resort. :(
Yes, I control my own DNS.
The job is backing up for the first time and it is backing up the
external client.
In order to try to resolve the above issues, I have addedd the
following,
DirAddresses = {
ip = {
addr = 216.93.165.137;
}
ip = {
addr = 192.168.0.137;
}
}
But I get the following when restarting,
Starting the Bacula Director daemon
04-Mar 06:23 bacula-dir: ERROR TERMINATION at address_conf.c:497
Config error: Can't add hostname(216.93.165.137) and port() to
addrlist (the
old style addresses cannot be mixed with new style)
: line 28, col 2 of file /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf
}
What is correct syntax?
The documentation posted does not match the version obviously. I am
using version, 1.36.3.
Yes, you need to use the documenation for your version.
The external client will not be able to reach the internal DIR
without help. I suggest redirecting a port on your firewall to port
9103 on your SD. Your external client will connect to that port, and
be redirected to your SD.
Does this make sense?
perhaps this will help:
http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Dealing_with_Firewalls.html
Yes, this makes sense. Thanks .. My only problem is that from the external
client I can telnet to ports 910{1,2,3}. The problem is when it looks up the
internal DNS address of the director. I do not think I have a firewall problem. :)
My distribution does not have documentation for this version. Can anyone suggest
a list of syntaxs for DirAddresses?
Thanks,
LDB
