if i understand you correctly, bacula is only using a 128k -- way too small? curious -- have you played with "Maximum Network Buffer Size" ? does this help? Yes, that's correct, bacula can only scale window to 128k that's why throughput gets limited to 10Mbit/s. With ssh tunnel between client an

i have noticed that scp is not a good measure of throughput -- i do not know why. i use an openvpn tunnel between sites and loose about 20% of throughput due to the tunnel. check window size on distant machine (using wireshark) to verify that some upstream device is not changing it. No, no, no.

Hi, I'm using bacula to do backups of some remote servers, over the Internet encapsulated in OpenVPN (just to make sure things are encrypted and kept off public address space). The bacula-fd is in Montreal Canada with 100mbit Ethernet. I also have another bacula-fd in Canberra Australia on
