Hi all,

As some of my remote users haven't been to the office for months no backups of their laptops have been taken.

The reason is VPN is configured one way. Remote users can access internal resources but no internal systems are aware of their hostnames. All IPs assigned to VPN tunnels are dynamic and short lived. It's also harder to have the laptops connected and subjecting to backup at strictly scheduled times.

My question: is it possible for Bacula clients to initialize backup on demand rather than running a schedule on the server? They don't have to be daily. One weekly one executed at convenient time would be much better than no backup at all.

I'm after a secure solution - just allow clients to perform a single operation rather than grant root access to Bacula server.

I'm running an old Bacula version 5.2.6.

Please advise.

Regards,
Adam
