Hi all,

I need to login as user bacula on the linux host running bacula client (9.4.4)

What is the default password for this user id?

Thanks,

Yateen Bhagat


Hello Yateen,

There is no default pasword for the OS's `bacula` user. As a matter of fact 
most package maintainers for the Bacula packages
on different Linux Distributions set no password, lock the account, and set the 
shell to `/usr/bin/nologin`

As the root user on the system to need to set a password, unlock the account 
and change the shell to a valid shell like
`/bin/bash`


If you are trying to run som binary or script as the bacula users, you can also 
just use sudo:

# sudo -u bacula /path/to/script_or_binary



Hope this helps,
Bill
