Excellent! \o/ Next up.... Client Initiated Backups! heh
These changes were not absolutely required as local backups continued to work when I had storage resource 'Address=<public FQDN of remote site>' and without the 'FDStorageAddress=' directive. I presume this was because I had opened ports 9101-9103 to the DIR/SD host on the local router as part of my previous attempts and I haven't undone any of them.
I didn't say it yesterday, but I was suspecting that if local and remote FD -> SD connections for backups were all still working after you set the Storage's Address to the external IP of the firewall, then it mu st be that NAT reflection was set/enabled on your firewall.
Yes sure, that will work, but do you really want all of your backup data traversing your firewall? :)
Thanks for your help -Chris-
You're welcome! I am glad that my curiosity to set this exact configuration up last week (for fun) was well timed. :) Best regards, Bill -- Bill Arlofski w...@protonmail.com
