I have setup bacula-gui on freebsd, didn't see nothing related to all
the features u mention, I will review the interface more deeply. This
is new for me "webacula" I will try to.

This programs, do they do everything with php or they have a mix of languages?

The main point is, if we are going to support bacula, we need to give
a more windows-type interface to the clients, most of the companies
that I have speak with they are windows guys.

Thanks!!!
