Hello there,

I am new to Bacula, and I am looking at installing onto a CentOS 5.2 server 
with a single IBM SAS tape drive. I can write to tape via mt/tar, and I wish to 
run Bacula, so I can backup our other servers (CentOS 4.4/CentOS 5.2 mix).

A few questions...

Firstly, I am looking at using the RPMs providing under 'rpms-contrib-fschwarz' 
on Sourceforge. Do I need to install each of these files on the server with the 
tape drive attached? Or are some 'optional'?
 I assume bacula-mtx, bacula-client, bacula-mysql, and bacula-bat are the core 
required files?

Secondly, do each of these 3 applications do the same thing? If I install one, 
can I do without the other 2?
bacula-bat
bacula-gconsole
bacula-wxconsole
 I have seen that some of these apps require a number of dependancy packages, 
and I would like to keep from installing packages that duplicate function.

Lastly, from my understanding, I only need the bacula-client installed on the 
servers being backed-up, and the main utilities on the server with the tape 
drive. Is this correct?

Any help would be much appreciated :)

Cheers,
Dagan McGregor
