[Bacula-users] Firewall woes

Don’t you just love firewalls!

Today received this error on a newly installed client –

12-Jun 16:27 KenTest-dir JobId 8309: Fatal error: Unable to authenticate with File daemon at "192.168.2.130:9102". Possible causes:blah,etc

On this client the iptable entry reads as follows: 1 ACCEPT tcp -- 192.168.2.146 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpt:9102 state NEW

On the director the iptable entry reads: 11 ACCEPT tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpts:9101:9103 state NEW

The director and the client are on the same network, and iptables doesn’t have any preceding REJECT entries. The file daemon is just my regular ‘cut and paste’ fd configuration.

Actually the bacula configuration is fine because I turned off the firewall on the client and the back up ran without issue.

Currently, I have ~40 clients backing up without any problem. At worst I guess I could use a RunBefore/After script to disable the firewall each night.

Any ideas welcome.

Thanks,

Ken
