Hi,
We use bacula in our company for all server backups. The backup portion is working just fine no errors on backing up (connects good to the SD). However, when I am doing a test restore I get the following error. I think it is strange that it can connect to the SD for backups, but not for restores. It give the same error on doing restores to different servers. The Director and SD are on the same box. I have iptables turned off, hosts.allow is All:All. Also have the max connects for dir is 100 and Max connections for SD is 100. It is not that busy of a backup server, this should be the only thing going on. The authentication password is the same for everything, I have changed the password in the configs I have provided below for security reason; however, if the passwords work for backing it up to the storage shouldn't it work for restoring from the storage? I have also restarted all the bacula daemons and have rebooted the server. Please let me know if I need to provide more files and information. _____ Version: 1.38.11 (28 June 2006) Job started.
