Hi all.

I am using Phil Stracchino's checkhost script in my "RunBeforeJob"
directive as follows:

RunBeforeJOb ="/path/to/script/checkhost %c"

%c is Bacula's variable for the client name but my client name is
different from my client's host address as you can see from my example
below:


Client {
  Name = ws00001-fd
  Address = ws00001
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password = "secret"
  File Retention = 30 days
  Job Retention = 6 months
  AutoPrune = yes
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 4
}

%c translates into ws00001-fd and not ws00001 which is the clients hostname.

Is there a variable in Bacula that I could use that will translate
into the client's host address instead of just its name?  I can
correct my problem by using aliases in my hosts file or my DNS server
but I still would want to know if such a variable exists.  I looked in
the manual and it seems not to be there.

Thanks.


Holden
