Reading the manual left by Mathieu [1] I have a lot of questions. In the section: " Server (Director) Configuration (bacula-dir.conf)" I see: | | ################### DEFINE DIRECTOR ############################# | Director | { | Name = backup-dir #or whatever name you want | Description = "Bacula Director - $MY_LOCATION" # "Bacula Director - Main Office" | DIRport = 9101 | QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/query.sql" | WorkingDirectory = "/var/bacula" | PidDirectory = "/var/run" | Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2 | FDConnectTimeout = 1min | SDConnectTimeout = 1min | Password = "$CONSOLE_PASSWORD" # "gsdfgfdsg44" | Messages = Daemon | } | | The Password parameter is generated automatically? Because I have a large and strong password here that I never wrote before I think.
Yes, automatically. The client and server have to have the same password filled in in the Password line. | Now in this other section: | | ################### DEFINE CLIENTS ############################## | | Client { | Name = $SOME_IMPORTANT_CLIENT-fd # accountant-fd | Address = $FQDN_OR_IP # accountant.mydomain.local | FDPort = 9102 | Catalog = GiantCatalog | Password = "$CLIENT_ACCESS_PASSWORD" # "strong_password" | File Retention = 6 days | Job Retention = 6 days | AutoPrune = yes | Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2 | } | | I have only two doubts: In Address parameter I can write the IP address and not the DNS name? The Password Parameter is the administrator account in the workstation in wich I have Bacula Client installed, no? As you can see, FQDN or IP. If you don't know what FQDN stands for, it is fully qualified domain name. The password, as I said earlier, is NOT the administrator password, it is the same password as the other end -- you can make it whatever you like; I generally accept the password created by the client install. | This are for now | Cheers, thanks in advance and waiting for answers | | [1] http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Encrypted_Backup_System_Using_Bacula_and_GnuPG | | Ing.
