Hello Ana,

I have not followed this thread in detail, but if the user wants more security in verifying the FD, it is possible to enable TLSAuthentication without enabling TLS on transmitted data, and in that case, in addition to the regular MD5 authentication Bacula will do TLSAuthentication but then not use TLS for the rest of the data transmission.

Best regards,
Kern

Complementing my previous post, MD5 and SHA1 do not make use of pki signatures from bacula crypto lib. They are hashes used for integrity verification and not for authenticity verification.

Best regards,

    Hello Markus,

    I´m quite sure that it is not possible to have pki signature
    without pki encryption. You can have computation of MD5 and SHA1
    signature of the file if configured in your FileSet. When dealing
    with pki signatures, this works only when you use pki encryption.
    I mean, the encrypted data at file daemon is signed before sent to
    storage daemon.

    Best regards,
    Ana

        Hello Bacula Users,

        I am trying pki signatures without pki encryption off.
        In my fd config I have

        FileDaemon {
                Name = x-fd
                ...
                pki signatures = yes
                pki encryption = no
                pki keypair = /etc/pki/tls/private/x-fd.pem # with CN=x-fd
        }

        I have a second machine y-fd with equivalent config.

        I make a Backup of x-fd.

        I do a restore of this backup but I change the restore host to
        y-fd, and
        it works, and that surprises me because y-fd should not be able to
        verify the signature made with the private key from x-fd, it
        does not
        know the public key of x-fd, right?

        I wonder how this is supposed to work.
        +
        I don't even know if a signature was made in the first place
        and how to
        verify that.
