Hello, Yes, I have already made the change to the IP directive, but the problem is that IPv6 doesn't seem to work correctly here, so I cannot properly test it. I can however document it, which I will do around the first of the year. I expect that the next version of Bacula will be released around March. It should have some nice new features (I don't mention them since they are not yet implemented, and I don't usually talk much about "vaporware", but I am working on them now.).
