Your question made me take a step back... I've been in kind of a conundrum lately. Over the last few months sometimes the problems I've had running bacula have cropped up after installing OS updates and the thought occurred to me that some of my issues could be due to the dynamically linked libraries being upgraded w/o bacula being recompiled. So when I thought I was ready to build and install bacula 5.0.0 I figured that would be a good time to install the OS updates. The first one that popped up was the update from 9.04 to 9.10 Ubuntu update. So I went through that, then built and installed Bacula 5.0.0. Then the problems started. So now I've tried re-compiling Bacula 3.0.3 and installing that and it is having the same problems so the issue must be related to the Ubuntu upgrade. My next thought was to try use "tar" to read and write from a tape. That works fine: I've been able to back up an entire directory and restore files from it. I've also back up a single file and restored that file, comparing it to the original file and no differences were found. Upgrading to Ubuntu 9.10 brought along a ton of upgraded programs and libraries so I've no idea where to begin. Has anybody got any other ideas?
