The crucial part of Sven's answer is "running on that host" in step 2. I think the problem is that the FD is matthew-fd, but the Catalog is dumped by aten-dir, which are presumably different machines: matthew-fd JobId 3392: Could not stat "/opt/bacula/working/bacula.sql": ERR=No such file or directory aten-dir JobId 3392: shell command: run BeforeJob "/opt/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup.pl matthew-Catalog" You need to run an FD on aten and use that as the client for the Catalog backup. __Martin _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
