I'm seeking some advice on configuring the backup of a remote client. Up till now all clients were located on the same local lan that hosts the Director, File and Storage Daemons. The whole lan is behind a nat'd router. One of these clients has now moved to a remote site, also behind a nat'd router so my existing FD for this client doesn't work.
As I understand Bacula, the sequence of operations is: DIR > FD : command to begin FD > SD : send data from fd to sd and there will be messages to the DIR also. For this to work for a remote client, all Daemons must be addressable by FQDNs and therefore the use of local addresses is not possible. One thought that occurs to me is that router ports 9101-9103 can be opened to address the Daemons as <external_ip>:port. This won't work for the SD which a mounted cifs share due to the storage being a locked down NAS with no possibility of installing an SD. Appreciate any thoughts or suggestions you might have. TIA -Chris Wilkinson
