Joseph and Dan,
Thanks for your help. That's got me started and it was mainly how to add the
arguments to the scripts that I was not fully sure about. Now I must read up
on securing mysql.

I would really appreciate it if someone could look over the bacula-dir.conf
file below which I took from the manual and modified. The manual example is
in chapter 25 'Automated Disk Backup' however when I used this bacula
returned an error about no default pool being defined. I therefore added
this pool to the bacula-dir.conf file. It appears to be working well however
if someone could take a quick look over it that would help put my mind to
rest.

Thanks again for you help and time. It is much appreciated.
Andy Lamb.
