Thanks for the reference. I had had a look at it earlier and had kept it on my
mind. After your posting I tried and failed. I believe I am close, but I just
can't get a hand on it:
I installed and verified SSH for bacula user.
If I su to bacula, I can establish the tunnels:
/usr/bin/ssh -fC2 -R 9101:backup.office.state-of-mind.de:9101 -R
9103:backup.office.state-of-mind.de:9103 -L 9112:localhost:9102
mail.state-of-mind.de
If I try to connect to fd on mail.state-of-mind.de I get a connection refused
though:
06-May 21:39 backup-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: bsock.c:129 Unable to connect
to Client: mail-fd on localhost:9112. ERR=Connection refused
I've verified the passwords. I could connect and 'estimate' before I started
tunneling. I believe I changed only as advised in the HOWTO.
I tried "set debuglevel" using bconsole, but that doesn't work, since I can't
connect to the external FD and tell it to raise the debug level.
Any advisory what I should do to track this down?
Thanks,
