Well I think I figured it out but it did not help. In Config.pl I put in the
ip address for ClientAlias. In my hosts file, I have the line: hp-pc-xp
<tab>0<tab>hp_admin
I ran the backup and I get:
The reply from server was: ok: requested backup of hp-pc-xp, Go back to
hp-pc-xp home page....
and I did, but no evidence of a backup occured...wtf????????
This is really getting on my nerves.....If I didn't have to do mac backups,
bacula seems a lot more 'intuitively obvious'.......grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
