It is randomly generated when you install, so it might look like your typical hashed/encrypted password. This password is what is used to authenticate communication between the console and the director. There are other passwords like it for communication between DIR-FD or DIR-SD.
You can change the passwords to whatever you like, as long as you change them in both the director configuration and the relevant console, file daemon or storage daemon configuration. So for your windows console to be able to connect you'll have to make sure that the password setting in bconsole.conf on the windows machine is the same as the director password in bacula-dir.conf on your ubuntu machine. >> Regards, >> Laxansh >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Laxansh K.
