This isn't actually the best way to do it if you're new to Linux. You'd need to first install and set up a complete development environment and learn how to build Bacula from source, and that's a substantial learning curve. Instead, go to https://www.bacula.org/bacula-binary-package-download/, register there (registration is free), and download the .deb packages (Ubuntu is built on top of Debian foundations and uses the Debian package system). Then you can just use a standard Ubuntu/Debian package manager to install the .deb packages. -- Phil Stracchino Babylon Communications ph...@caerllewys.net p...@co.ordinate.org Landline: +1.603.293.8485 Mobile: +1.603.998.6958 _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
