Hi all,

when installing the bacula-client packageon Debian I end up i /etc/bacula with
bacula-fd.conf
and
bconsole.conf

I have 2 questions, that are still open although I searched through the main 
documentation and read the chapters containing bconsole.conf:

(1) In bacula-fd.conf I understand how to set up the FileDaemon resource. I 
also understand how to set up the Director resource for bacula-dir, so that the 
actual backup works. There always is a second Director resource for bacula-mon 
and I do not understand what it used for and where I find the secret string in 
Baculum UI on the Bacula Director machine to put in Password for the Director 
resource on the Bacula FD client machine.


The second bacula-mon Director interface is for the tray monitor app running on the client machine. The tray monitor acts as a simplified director only for retrieving info from the bacula-fd daemon.

(2) What is the use for the bconsole.conf file on the Bacula FD client machine? 
Is it a means to allow the admin of the client machine to take a look at the 
jobs on the Bacula Director machine concerning this client machine? If I wanted 
this to work, where in Baculum UI on the Bacula Director machine do I find the 
secret string to put in Password for the Director resource in bcsonsole.conf on 
the client machine?


That is the configuration file for the bconsole command line utility used to interface with Director and Storage daemons.



Thanks for considering my questions and all the best,
  J/C
