Does anyone can help me with that configuration?

I just need a clarification concerning tls communication encryption:

Is it enough to configure "TLS Require = yes" on the file daemon side to
 ensure the communication between the file daemon and the storage
daemon will be encrypted?

The reason why I do not want to set "TLS Require = yes" on the storage daemon is that other file daemons (local lan) should be able to connect
the storage daemon without tls.

To rephrase the question:

I would like to require some (remote) clients to communicate encrypted
with the storage daemon, and some other (local) clients not.

Is this possible? Maybe I need two storage daemons for that? (but two
storage daemons sharing a device is probably not possible?).
Or is it okay to configure the storage daemon with "TLS Require = no"
and the remote clients will connect encrypted nevertheless, because in
their configuration (file daemon) is set: "TLS Require = yes"?

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated,

Specifying "TLS Require = yes" in the bacula-fd.conf FileDaemon {} section should result in TLS being required for all outgoing storage connections. You could test this by setting TLS Enable = no on the storage daemon and verifying that the file daemon refuses to connect.
