I've got a setup that's fairly simple: a bacula director, sd, and fd on a
debian box, and an fd on a remote windows box (that is, it's not even on the
LAN). The relevant sections of the config file are:
/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf (on the "server"):
Director {
Name = ptnv-dir
DIRport = 9101
QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/query.sql"
WorkingDirectory = "/var/bacula/working"
PidDirectory = "/var/run"
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 1
Password = "jveb**IGHappe"
Messages = Daemon
}
Client {
Name = carlos-fd
Address = 66.100.53.72
FDPort = 9102
Catalog = MyCatalog
Password = "jveb**IGHappe"
File Retention = 30 days
Job Retention = 6 months
AutoPrune = yes
}
Storage {
Name = File
Address = [externally resolvable ip address of localhost - not 127.0.0.1]
SDPort = 9103
Password = "jveb**IGHappe"
Device = FileStorage
Media Type = File
}
- - -
- - -
F:\\bacula\\bin\\bacula-fd.conf (on the client, a windows machine not on the
LAN of the server)
Director {
Name = ptnv-dir
Password = "jveb**IGHappe"
}
FileDaemon {
Name = carlos-fd
FDport = 9102
WorkingDirectory = /bacula/working
Pid Directory = /bacula/working
Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 20
}
The director connects fine to the sd (I know this as it spits no errors, and
local backups - that is to say, backups where the fd is on the same machine are
the director - work perfectly fine). However, trying to run a job on carlos-fd
fails with:
Fatal error: Unable to authenticate with File daemon. Possible causes:
Passwords or names not the same or
Maximum Concurrent Jobs exceeded on the FD or
FD networking messed up (restart daemon).
I've checked the docs (though not the list archive, apologies - gmane was
behaving strangely earlier), and I'm thoroughly at a loss. Any suggestions? Any
extra info I need to post?
Thanks,
Arjun
