I have a working 5.0.3 solution on Ubuntu. All local clients backup fine. However, I am having a tough time getting a remote client job to execute. I have successfully gotten this to work before by putting the hostname (no domain) of the client in /etc/host of the bacula box and by listing the director and SD name and IP in the host file of the Windows sever I want to back up.
My setup: Local Firewall: ports 9101-9103 forwarded to bacula box Verified I can telnet to ports 9101 and 9103 from remote client box. Local bacula box: Entered public IP of remote host in /etc/hosts Can ping client by name "lightspeed-1" and get reply from public IP Remote Firewall: Port 9102 forwarded to Windows server client Client can telnet to ports 9102 and 9103 of bacula box Client can connect to Director, check status, estimate jobs, etc... Client can ping bacula box baktrak-dir and get response from public IP Client has same version of client software as on the Director is running I am not using DNS to resolve names, but have never needed to when entering proper information in host files. Starting the SD with debug results in the following errors when attempting to run a job. I have tried this on a 64 bit 2008 and 32 bit 2003 server at the remote site. baktrak-sd: dircmd.c:180-0 Hello Start Job lightspeed-1.2012-02-16_20.15.23_11 baktrak-sd: job.c:256-0 Found Job lightspeed-1.2012-02-16_20.15.23_11 baktrak-sd: cram-md5.c:73-0 send: auth cram-md5 <14085835.1329444925@baktrak-sd> ssl=0 baktrak-sd: cram-md5.c:89-0 Bnet receive challenge response error. baktrak-sd: authenticate.c:236-0 cram-auth failed with client baktrak-sd: job.c:275-0 Authentication failed Job lightspeed-1.2012-02-16_20.15.23_11 baktrak-sd: job.c:221-0 Auth=0 canceled=1 errstat=0 Worked on this for hours last night, reading posts about similar problems, but could not get past the errors. I would like to test gethostbyname to see if it is working properly. Is there a way to launch it manually--or maybe I am missing something else??
