I've not used Bacula on a Mac, but I do notice that Homebrew (http://brew.sh) has a formula for bacula-fd, which could be used to install the client. Right now, it's only for the 5.x version (5.2.13), though. I hope this helps. Cheers, Paul. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Slashdot TV.
