Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Is there a way or is it possible to implement, a
method in win32 where the nice of the bacula process is set at installtime
or via a config option? I'd like to set the nice once in the process list
then not have to set it again or have bacula do it via it's install.
Thanks.
Dave.
