Hi,
yes, you can have restricted accounts in bareos-webui. Last time i tried
this i got stuck because at that time bareos-webui didn't support
multiple catalogs (which would have been the most obvious way to
implement restriction). But this issue has been addressed, see
https://docs.bareos.org/IntroductionAndTutorial/InstallingBareosWebui.html
"Can access multiple directors and catalogs"
Best,
Kai

Hello there.
I'm wondering if there is any less-intrusive option for backing up
"interminnently connected" hosts (like my wife's laptop :-)).
At first I had a static schedule which would backup the client every
day at 9am or so.
That of course would make backups skipped if the laptop was not on at
that precise time so I had to monitor that externally and sometimes
spawn backup jobs manually. That was annoying.
Then I found the "Run On Incoming Connect Interval" option which made
my life much easier. Now if the "normal" backup job is skipped, the
backup gets spawned as soon as my wife boots up the laptop. That makes
it relatively well covered in terms of backup.
But it also makes the laptop unuseable (especialy in terms of
videoconference solutions or other low-latency uses) for the first
half hour or so after each bootup.
So the question is - is there any reasonable way to make the backups
more client-controlled? So the backup job is not spawn immediately
after the connection from fd to dir, but can be delayed by user or
spawned directly by user when desired?
I probably could set up the bareos webui but could I limit my wife's
permissions to just that single client? It would still not be a very
elegant solution (the necessity to log in to "external" service is not
very user-friendly) but it would be something.
Any other paths to explore?
I'm at 20.0.1 at the moment.
