Hello, There are two things that I would like to point out: 1. Please do not hijack an email thread and use it for a different topic. I didn't look back at who changed the topic so it may not apply to you. 2. Many (not all) of the points that you are bringing up on this list are support or wishlist issues. Those subjects and others, with the exception of probable bugs or development issues should be discussed on the bacula-user's list. More information on support and feature requests can be found on www.bacula.org on the appropriate menu item. Thanks for taking the above into consideration.
