thanks. one big thing that the author points out there: <!> It is very important that under the Common Name field you specify the full hostname of the machine in question, this has to be the hostname you use in your Storage, Client, Director etc configuration sections, if these do not match you will get a very confusing error message. this was where my initial confusion was. it seems that after i re-created the certificates using a CN of "home1.local" i've now got the TLS communication between the Director and bconsole working. apparently when i get to configuring my remote clients i'll need to use work.dyndns.org for the CN on both remote clients since that will be the address that i'll be specifying in the bacula config files. *fingers crossed* -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iEYEAREIAAYFAk4s9p4ACgkQXhfCJNu98qB7tACg6TDvSClWHnlbkMjwhaCwuzIB n3wAoLAC44qWVnt2JdeBkFMJhrhKeZVf =rMN8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Storage Efficiency Calculator This modeling tool is based on patent-pending intellectual property that has been used successfully in hundreds of IBM storage optimization engage- ments, worldwide.
