[Bacula-users] Bacula via NATed connection and Bacula docs
2010-01-27 02:48:14
I am running a bacula director (and storage daemon) on a machine in a
private IP net. One of the clients is located in a public IP net (let's
call it external-fd). The connection from server-dir/server-sd to
external fd is NATed.
Like described on the bacula.org website in "dealing with firewalls" I
use an FQDN for the server-dir/server-sd that resolves internally to the
private IP address and externally to the external IP-Adress of the NAT
router (that forwards the packets to the server-dir/server-sd).
AND I HAVE TESTED IT: with telnet. Telnetting from external-fd to
server-sd using the above mentionened FQDN and the port of the storage
daemon (telnet storage.server.sd 9103) outputs exactly the same as
telnetting internally to that port.
Afaik, that means: bacula-fd on the external client should be able to
connect to bacula-sd on the internal server.
But it does not. Running a backup job for this client the director is
quite a long time "waiting for Client ... to connect to Storage ..." and
eventually gives up.
Using netstat I can verify there is no connection from the client to
9103 on the server (or to the exernal IP of the private subnet at all).
There must be something important I overlook, but I did not find
anything helpful on the web anywhere.
Any hint or help is appreciated.
Dirk
