[RESEND: many apologies for sending as HTML] As a follow up on Uthra Rao's question ("client connect to storage daemon problem"), here's a different explanation of what we are trying to accomplish, plus the requested config files.
We have been successfully using Bacula for many years and now need to add clients on a separate high speed network (due to the volume of data). We added a 10 GbE switch and network interface cards to the large data clients (but not all) and the backup server, to form a private network (192.168.0.*). Since the Storage resource is defined with one address (on the regular network) and not its address on the private network, we get errors: Fatal error: Authorization key rejected by Storage daemon. Fatal error: Failed to authenticate Storage daemon. Fatal error: Bad response to Storage command: wanted 2000 OK storage , got 2902 Bad storage The "Dealing with Firewalls" section of the manual talks about clients on two networks, although notes that it hasn't been tested. Early versions of the manual refer to defining two Storage resources and two corresponding Job resources, differing in Name and Address <http://www.bacula.org/de/dev-manual/Data_Encryption.html>. This gives the same errors. The latest manual instead defines a generic Storage-server name and depends on the hosts file on each client to refer to the correct name for that network. The two Job resources are there, probably left over from the earlier version, and I assume are not needed. [It also may be difficult to maintain the appropriate changes to the hosts files on dozens of clients.] <http://bacula.org/5.2.x-manuals/en/problems/problems/Dealing_with_Firewalls.html> Below are the beginning of our config files. The "*Address = 0.0.0.0" was added based on an old comment on the list, to ensure the services listen to all network interfaces (which they seem to do by default anyway). I assume the requirement to match the storage server name/address is for added security over the passwords, but it makes this situation much more difficult. Has anyone succeeded at running one backup server with clients on two networks and network cards? Any suggestions for this? Thanx.
