I've had Bacula 2.0.3 running for a week on my Centos 4.4 server backing up files on the server successfully.
Yesterday I decided to install Bacula on a Windows XP machine as a client. I created a job on the server to backup a test folder on the Windows machine and once I'd sorted the passwords and names out it backed up the files. So I added a job that should have run this morning, but that completed with an error. Now wxconsole on the Windows client cannot connect to the director on the Linux server and the director cannot talk to the client. I've double checked the passwords and they are still correct so what's the likely problem(s)? The Windows machine has been rebooted overnight. The Bacula client icon in the taskbar states idle and the status window lists the one successful job. The wxconsole error is: Welcome to bacula wx-console 2.0.3 (06 March 2007)! Using this configuration file: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Bacula\wx-console.conf Connecting... Connected Director authorization problem. Most likely the passwords do not agree. If you are using TLS, there may have been a certificate validation error during the TLS handshake. Please see http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/faq.html#AuthorizationErrors for help. ERR=1999 Authorization failed. After the failed connection there is a new message in bconsole: 11-May 18:30 Server-dir: ERROR in authenticate.c:382 Unable to authenticate console "*UserAgent*" at client:192.168.1.10:36131 The result is the same for both the Windows administrator (under which I installed the software) and a "limited" user.
