Hello All,
I've set up a bacula server to do backups of some 10 systems. It's a
small-scale test setup to serve as a proof of concept and testing ground for a
to-be-deployed larger setup (~300-400 systems).
I have those clients, in this case a server named "almond", with it's own
Device ( a ZFS filesystem), it's own Storage and Pool definitions etc. (Please
note: I'm testing with making a configuration wherein each client has it's own
pool/storage/device in it's own zfs filesystem. In the current config, almond
is the only client for which this is configured like this. This shouldn't
change anything though) The config is below. This setup works very well, I can
do parallel backups etc. and have great control over retention etc. The problem
is that all clients that use that Director can do restore actions to themselves
of data from any other client.
In short, the problem is:
1. I make a backup of system "almond". This works well
2. On system "pine", I start bconsole and connect to the Director
3. I select "restore", "7 - enter a list of files to restore".
4. It lists all defined clients. I select "almond".
5. I select some files, say /etc/shadow and /etc/secret_file.
6. I select almond's Job Resource
7. It says "Run restore job" and prints the current settings.
8. I use "mod" to change the restore_client to "pine".
9. Type "yes" and it starts restoring almond's /etc/shadow and
/etc/secret_file to pine's default restore directory. I can access almond's
secret files on my own system.
It works like this from all configured clients to all other configured clients.
This is clearly unwanted and counter-intuitive. I didn't expect this default
behavior and feel the manual should maybe reflect this. In this particular
case all servers are mine, but in the larger setup we'll have multiple
departments, users, and companies server's all being backupped to one Bacula
server.
What's worse, I can even create my own /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow on my own
system "pine",with my passwords for known accounts, make a backup of it, then
use the above method to "restore" it to the almond server, thereby disallowing
authorized users (as their accounts will be gone) and allowing myself access
(as I have all users/passwords).
What I'd want is for each client, to only be able to see it's own jobs, files,
pools, volumes etc. and be able to only access those.
I have also tried the above with other configured clients, and the behavior is
the same.
To solve things, I've tried setting ACL's in the Console statement like this:
Console {
Name = Almond
Password = ""
ClientACL = Almond
StorageACL = Almond_Storage
PoolACL = Almond_Pool
}
But this doesn't work. I thought this would limit the client as defined in
Client { Name= Almond.....} to access only the listed storage and pools (which
would be great, as almond has it's own reserved pool), but it doesn't do that.
I think I may be interpreting the manual the wrong way. I've googled and found
several other people asking the same question, but no working answers.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Many thanks in advance,
Reinder
