Thank you Arno,
This is rather what I expected. Kern seemed to say he was using the
backup scheme from the manual with several clients, so I'd still like
to see how that might work. However, your setup makes sense to me and
seems less fragile, so I think I'll go with it. I have a few
questions

Hello again all,
I've tried looking in the manual for help, but I've found that while
the manual is fairly comprehensive, it's not remarkably accessible;
that is, while I'm sure my answers are probably in there somewhere,
I'm not at all sure that I could find them, so I come to you for help.

I'm just curious about this. Why is the slot field still reflect a slot
number when a volume's InChanger status is 0? My thought is that that
if it not in the changer, it can't be assigned a slot.

It is impossible using bextract on unix.
The best way is to use bscan to put the jobs back into the catalog and then
restore them as normal. With Bacula 2.x, you can probably do the restore on
unix to get the main data stream in the file.
You could also try the latest winbacula beta, which I thi

Dear Arno
Thanks for jolting my memory - dragged out W R Stevens TCP/IP Illustrated
Volume 1 read Chapter 23.
The timeout is 2 hours after last packet.
This implies that Bacula does not have a tunable application keepalive
timer and relies on the TCP default.
You guessed correctly - I only wait
