Hi all,

I'm running the latest bacula, and everything works fine when I backup on the LAN.

However, I need to backup a server on the DMZ. This is what I did;

1) Install the file daemon on the dmzserver.

2) opened port 9101-9103 in the firewall for traffic going from DMZ, to the LAN.

3) configured both the FD and DIR.

When I start a job, it seems to run fine. After a while (about 580 MB) it loses the connection. Here's what I get in Console:

________________________________________________________

13-Feb 15:25 beagle-dir: dmzsvr.2006-02-13_15.20.49 Fatal error: Network error with FD during Backup: ERR=Connection reset by peer

________________________________________________________________

Note that it says SD Bytes written = 0. If I cancel the job somewhere, this is > 0 (Depending on how long I wait several hundreds of MB's.)

This space also gets allocated on the storage, but only in the event of a timely cancellation.

Looks to me that it loses connection when the job either completes or reaches another threshold.

I've tried to configure a heartbeat Interval = 5 minutes on the FD, but to no avial.

Any help very much appreciated!

Many thanks,

Ger Apeldoorn.
