Might be that I am completely missunderstanding your issue, but I think you were fooled by a license issue that keeps debian lenny (and so ubuntu starting with 8.10) packages from supporting encryption at all. data and transport encryption work fine with the 2.44 packages in debian lenny, you just need to download the source packages and recompile. http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2007/07/msg00144.html apt-get build-dep bacula aptitude install libssl-dev openssl aptitude source bacula cd bacula-2<press tab> vim debian/rules # look for the rules line for bacula-fd and add --enable-openssl, I think, but you can easily look that up debian/rules binary # if all packages compile fine dpkg -i ../bacula-common*.deb dpkg -i ../bacula-fd*.deb After that you will have a bacula-fd installed that is able to perform data and transport encryption. -- Philipp > > Matthew > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
