If you're worried about access to your Bacula by unauthorized users, you can also restrict the console connection to only allow the status command, by the way. Arno > Ralf > > - > Take Surveys.

Change the permissions, you don't have to run bconsole as root.

The problem is that bconsole only can be run with root rights. I want to transmit the querys result via nrpe to my nagios-server and the nrpe user on the local machine has no root privileges. So, is there a possibility to get the value without root privileges? Jonas - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
