[Bacula-users] Bacula 2.4.4

Hey, long time no speak,

    I'm happy to finally see that Ubuntu's got Bacula 5.0 working as part of their packages, and have been toying with a development server to see how things will pan out for us during upgrade.

    We've been using Ubuntu Server 9.10 64-bit with Bacula 2.4.4 all around, and the only hold up before was that VSS wasn't working properly when connecting to a client that was Windows Server 2008 x64, I understood these problems were fixed in 3.0, but Ubuntu never got around to adding it as part of their repos until their current 10.04 release.

    I have a few questions I was hoping some of you might be able to answer me on:

1) I'm using a File based storage on the server, during upgrade - will I be able to depend on those original Full Backups, or am I looking at starting all those full backups from scratch?

2) It's been a while since I tinkered with it, but, is there something in the FileSet I have to specify to get VSS working on that Windows Server 2008 x64 client, or is that business now locked in by default? File set is below.

3) Should I worry about the clients? They're all 2.4.4 currently, I had suspected updating them to 5.0 would be optimal after testing, but wanted some input (I already know I'll probably have to install 5.0 on the win2k8x64 server).

4) I'm planning on just doing a boatload of cut/paste since I'm not sure how the upgrade is going to work with my existing configuration files - has anyone actually been using Ubuntu package-based updates and have any success stories without having to re-update all config files? Just curious.
