Thanks, I understand. Still the partial questions are open where I find the corresponding secret strings in Baculum. I am not complaining, just want to make explicit that not all parts of the questions are answered yet.
Where ein Baculum do I find the bconsole secret for the bcsonsole config file? I understand that it must be somehow possible to restrict the bconsole access using ACLs. I am just trying to understand where in the most basic config I would find the secret (which menu path in Baculum). Also: on what operating systems there is a tray monitor available that then uses the bacula-mon interface? Is this a Windows-specific thing? (So this interface is for localhost use only I I should find the corresponding secret string in the config for the tray app?). I am using mostly macOS and Debian, some FreeBSD - is this relevant on these platforms? (I don’t have Windows at all. Lucky me.) Thanks again, J/C > On 15.
