Well, Bacula SD had a 'hang issue' in 2.4.4 too, but it got patched (and it was different..). After the patch it worked very well. About the issue in 3.0.0 - I actually see the same thing on FreeBSD-7.0 as well, so I guess moving the one server from 6.3-RELEASE to STABLE won't fix that. -- Silver ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
