Hello !
First, please excuse my bad english. Also excuse me for this is a very long
mail
I'm all new to bacula.
I installed it yesterday, following the tutorial. Everything worked fine,
and I can backup the source tree of bacula with no problem, and restore it
with no problem.
I have modified my configuration files, and I am able to backup and restore
the entire system where bacula is installed with no problem...
Then "what's the problem ?", you would ask.
Here's my problem :
After configuring bacula to backup it's own system, I tried to set it up to
backup another system on my network. I think I configured it well (please
see my configuration files below), but when I run a backup, it starts and
does nothing (I can tell it does nothing cause my HDD activity LED is idle,
and I've let the job run for more than an hour and it has never finished
(I'm backing up only 300 Mb with no compression, the entire system backup on
the server backed up more than 3GB in 10 minutes with GZIP6 compression)
Here is what I get on the bconsole when I start a backup :
[EMAIL PROTECTED] bacula]# ./bconsole

This looks ok to me, Am I right ?
After more than an hour, i cancel the job, and here is what I get (for this
example, i canceled after just a few minutes, but it's the same)

I think the " SD termination status: Waiting on FD " means that the
Storage Daemon never gets nothing from my File Daemon. Am I right ?
I have nothing more in /var/bacula/working/log.
The server is running on an SME Server v7, and I build bacula 2.0.3 from the
sources, with just ./configure --enable-mysql
The client is running on a OpenSuse, and I build bacula 2.0.3 from the
sources, with just ./configure --enable-client-only
Here are my config files :
