That's interesting. I assume you mean DirAddress, FDAddress and SDAddress. I don't specify them since the manual says they are optional and I haven't had any problem so far by omitting them. Do you mean to say that they are now mandatory? Or are you referring to something else? -- Erik ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
