well i simply added myself to the bacula group and that was enough to read the bacula config files. so if i need to now run as root because of the certs, so be it. my certs now have the following permissions: - -rw-r--r-- 1 root bacula 3195 2011-07-23 16:53 home1.crt - -r-------- 1 bacula bacula 887 2011-07-23 16:53 home1.key - -rw-r--r-- 1 root bacula 1359 2011-07-23 16:52 myca.crt so bacula should be able to read them all now, yet i'm still getting the same error `TLS negotiation failed` when trying to run bconsole. it seems if i followed the guide that Mr. Walton posted[1] that everything should be working, so maybe the problem is there? i pretty much followed it to a tee. i created the directories, copied the openssl config, etc. i followed the section "Create the CA Certificate and Key" to create the myca.crt and myca.key, continued with the extra configuration, and then followed the "Create a Server certificate" section twice to generate my home1.{crt,key} and home2.{crt,key}. sorry for being so clueless 1. http://www.g-loaded.eu/2005/11/10/be-your-own-ca/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEAREIAAYFAk4ssVAACgkQXhfCJNu98qDYOQCdHK3rLXLRnhgh9U8WFmFNAV2U UcMAmgI4OXKim6cIlqG3KjMtnfxi3mEy =sm8J -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Magic Quadrant for Content-Aware Data Loss Prevention Research study explores the data loss prevention market.
