Probably a good choice because under linux, Bacula runs without serious problems. Usually :-) > So I'm going back from zero !! > not cool ! You will probably notice that, in the same time you spend with Bacula on Windows, you have a company-wide reliable and proven backup setup :-) Of course you won't help making the windows version better, and if you're a windows admin you'll have difficulties getting used to the nix/linux taste of things. > Thanks a lot.. > > PS: do anybody have a tip for the OpenSuse Bacula installation (I speak > about something not listed in the doc ;-) ) Start with the manual, and try to keep your configuration short and well documented for a start. From then on, you'll probably only add clients for a while, and any problems you encounter can be discussed on this list.
