Hello, thank you very much ;o) So I have decided that I should finally upgrade my 5.2.12-based backup site to something newer. So I have upgraded server, then 20+ client nodes... And then I have found, that some services started to fail. And disaster began... Please, why there is installdirs: ... chmod 770 $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir) ... in Makefile.in? I had sysconfdir set to /usr/local/etc in FreeBSD and /etc in Linux, so everywhere I have put new bacula, I accidentally cut off access to these system directories to non-root services and programs.

Hello Kern, FYI: I had already downloaded and ran the personal version. And now am proud to say I have paid for it based on your response. Glad to help, especially if/when it is affordable! Also, you should know that the version that is there is already 7.4.0, my question was more of if there was a different version for those that paid for it but I guess that makes no sense since 7.4.0 is the latest release. At any rate safe travels please! ---snip--- If you go to www.bacula.org -> Downloads -> Download Center you will find where you can download the Windows binaries for 7.2.0 or 7.4.0 for personal use free of charge. However, if you are a hosting company, you should go to Bacula Systems and purchase the binaries. I prefer to consider the modest fee a donation for more open source features for those who really can afford to make a donation, but the real reason is that it is simply to compensate Bacula Systems for the work they pay to be done (writing code, building the package, making it available).

Ran my script yesterday to upgrade all the FD's, took 4 times as long as I thought it would! All backups running without a hitch, much thanks for a successful upgrade! I don't take this for granted. FYI - I am backing up one Windows VM instance, according to Bacula it seems we must pay for a license to do this? a) Is the software with the $25 license any different than the personal download (not that I really care, will buy the license regardless)? b) Is this licensing in order to compensate the packager for doing the compile or is it some Windows related issue, just curious?

Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula Release 7.4.0
There is generally no reason to upgrade the FDs, but at some point
certain FD dependent features may not be available so it is advisable to
upgrade them when you can.
Best regards,

Thanks, installed and running on 2 directors. Tested a few backups,
working fine, thanks again.
Is there any noticeable benefit to updating all the client versions
