[Bacula-users] bacula job times out after 2 hours 11 mins 15 secs

Hi,

we have two Ubuntu Hardy Heron (8.04) servers running the packaged versions
of bacula-dir/bacula-sd (the backup server) and bacula-fd (the client).
All versions are 2.2.8-5ubuntu7.2 (out of support, I know).

I set up a reasonably large (190GB) backup job recently.  The estimation
says:
        2000 OK estimate files=256194 bytes=190,196,003,597

Every time the backup runs it fails with the same elapsed time "2 hours 11 mins
15 secs", (7875 seconds). I had thought the router/firewall in between might be
causing some problem, eg clearing out the connection and dropping packets after
that number of seconds.

I ran a job manually this morning and took a tcpdump at both ends to
try and see what's going on.   It appears at the moment that data is still
flowing and the bacula-sd host sends a tcp reset, but I'm still trying to
understand it completely.

Does anyone have any thoughts why this might happen?  Has anyone come
across a bacula or linux issue that might cause this?  Does this "magic
time limit" ring any bells for anyone?

A report from the most recent trial is below.

Thanks in advance,
Gavin
