Does anyone else find it frustrating when you post a question, the question causes you to think in a different direction, than you find an answer (possible answer)? I may have found my problem. I'm running a test now. Is there a setting to have bacula copy symlinks and not/never follow symlinks? Is there a way to have bacula generate a log file of each file as it (either fd or sd) touches and copies the file or as the file is written to tape?
