After replacing the switch I can backup both laptops with a wired connection, thanks. I'm still concerned that bacula doesn't seem to handle network errors that well. Even after replacing the switch, I still couldn't backup over wireless, and thats how these machines access the network. They won't get backed up very often if I have to plug them into a wired connection. Are there any configuration options that might help it handle whatever network problem it's exposing? Maybe longer timeouts or additional retries? thanks charles ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
