I checked. No the IP for the client in the bacula-dir.conf doesn't end
in "."
Just for clarification, here's my client's bacula-fd.conf. Are you
referring to the password in the section "Director Name = bacula-dir"?
---------------------<snip>----------------------------------
FileDaemon { # this is me
Name = clientdesktop-fd
FDport = 9102 # where we listen for the director
WorkingDirectory = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application
Data\\Bacula\\Work"
Pid Directory = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application
Data\\Bacula\\Work"
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
}
#
# List Directors who are permitted to contact this File daemon
#
Director {
Name = bacula-dir
Address = 192.168.1.150
# Password = "@client_password@"
Password = "2XqxDu0dhh2RQXFxmqyPGfpuN49vcPr9rU9GmMuBd6kh"
}
#
# Restricted Director, used by tray-monitor to get the
# status of the file daemon
#
Director {
Name = clientdesktop-mon
Password = "NI/gCJe3XXimdkJO9icDylUjlNxNg7RX8Zk2BLY67wBy"
Monitor = yes
}
# Send all messages except skipped files back to Director
Messages {
Name = Standard
director = shephan-dir = all, !skipped, !restored
}
