Hi,

I'm setting up a new bacula server (bacula-dir, bacula-sd) which is
located at our data center. This server is connected to the client lan and
the backup lan with 2 network cards. The backup lan is a subnet that is
not accessible from the client lan. It's only used to backup server that
are located in the data center.

I want to backup some server that are located in the b-lan (S-FD) and some
clients in the c-lan (C-FD). This is working fine, however data from S-FD
in the b-lan are always sent to the c-lan address of the SD.

Setting the SD's address in bacula-sd.conf and bacula-dir.conf to the
b-lan address is working for the S-FD's, but not for C-FD because they
can't reach the b-lan.

 server                ____________
 ______               |            |
|      |  backup lan  | bacula-dir | bacula server
| S-FD |--------------| bacula-sd  |
|______|eth1      eth1|____________|
   |eth0                    |eth0           ______
   |                        |              |      |
   |________________________|______________| C-FD | client
                        client lan     eth0|______|


What I'm missing is an option in the FD to set the SD's address. Maybe
depending on the DIR that started the backup in case there are more than
one DIR and SD.

Workaround at the moment:

* setting SD's addresse to the address in c-lan (eth0), so that it is
reachable from c-lan FD's.

* adding an extra route on S-FD that routes all traffic to the SD over the
b-lan (ip route add bacula-sd/32 dev eth1).
