Hello list,
I would like to tell you about a problem we're having after upgrading
bacula 2.2.6 to 5.0.3.
In our setup we have the main bacula server (director and storage) with
a LTO3 tape drive. All jobs are done on this server using his local
storage (storage1). The is also another storage

Hello,
It is possible to get the SD to connect out to the FD for a single FD?
I have a single FD outside of the network that bacula runs on and this
FD is behind NAT for the rest of the network.
I could start natting connections into the network that are from this
a Bacula forum?
