Fixed!

After some messing about with telnet from the client to the server on 
port 9103
I discovered that nothing came through from the outside to the inside of 
the server.
Or in other words, iptables was playing havoc, disabling (for now) 
iptables made
it work fine. Testing the backup with a restore worked as well.

I am very impressed with bacula so far!

-------- Original Message --------

I need a little bit of help here.

I have the following setup, Fedora 11, Bacula 3.0.3, set up and working
with a local client (i.e.
the client runs on the same machine as bacula-dir and bacula-sd). I
checked that bacula-dir and
bacula-sd are actually listening on port 9102/9103 on the real
interface, not the localhost.

I have also a small NAS, bubba, with a debian sarge for arm installed,
this has bacula version
1.36.2. Here is the status of the bubba client (called beige):

status client=beige

Connecting to Client beige at 192.168.1.3:9102

beige Version: 1.36.2 (28 February 2005) arm-unknown-linux-gnu debian 3.1

Which proves that bacula-dir can connect to it. Now when I start a job
nothing happens at the
client side. If I cancel the job I get:

Automatically selected Job: JobId=33 Job=mail-backup.2010-02-12_17.34.19.04

Failed to connect to Storage daemon: 192.168.1.40:9103

12-Feb 17:47 bacula-dir JobId 33: Fatal error: Socket error on Storage
command: ERR=No data available


Note: bacula-dir and bacula-sd are running on the machine with IP nr
192.168.1.40,
the client has IP nr 192.168.1.3.

What is strange that the connection bacula-fd<->  bacula-dir works fine,
the connect bacula-fd<->  bacula-sd does not.

Is the because of the version difference between the client and the
server (1.36.2 vs 3.0.3)?
Problem here is that I cannot simply update the client.

Any idea what to check here,

thanks,

Albert
