Hello!

I am trying to set up a backup-job on a win 2008 server over internet. I have done this successfully on two other servers, but I am having trouble with this one.  Here’s the bacula-dir.config file on the clientserver (that is to be backed up). The fd service is running on both backup-client/server.


#  For Bacula release 5.0.3 (08/05/10) -- Windows MinGW32
FileDaemon {                            # this is me
  Name = clientserver-fd
  FDport = 9102                # where we listen for the director
  WorkingDirectory = "C:\\Program Files\\Bacula\\working"
  Pid Directory = "C:\\Program Files\\Bacula\\working"
# Plugin Directory = "C:\\Program Files\\Bacula\\plugins"

  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
}
#
# List Directors who are permitted to contact this File daemon
#
Director {
  Name = backupserver.domain.no-fd 
  Password = "backupserver-fd-password”
}

#
# Restricted Director, used by tray-monitor to get the
#   status of the file daemon
#

Director {
  Name = client-mon
  Password = " backupserver-fd-password”
  Monitor = yes
}

# Send all messages except skipped files back to Director
Messages {
  Name = Standard
  director = backupserver.domain.no-fd = all, !skipped, !restored
}

I have checked the FD name (of the backupserver) and password in the clientserver bacula-dir.config file many times, and it seems to be correct. I have restarted the service many times on both the backupserver and the clientserver. I have also reinstalled bacula on the clientserver.
 I thought that it could be a problem with the forwarding in the firewall but when I ran an estimate command on the client-job I got the following message:

 

Failed to connect to Client.

You have messages.

*messages
13-Oct 13:08 backupserver.domain.no-dir JobId 0: Fatal error: Unable to authenticate with File daemon at " client-ip-adress:9102". Possible causes:

Passwords or names not the same or
Maximum Concurrent Jobs exceeded on the FD or
FD networking messed up (restart daemon).
Please see http://www.bacula.org/en/rel-manual/Bacula_Freque_Asked_Questi.html#SECTION003760000000000000000 for help.

It looks as if the backupserver gets contact with the File Demon on the client server but there is something going wrong with authentication. Also, I can connect to the backupserver using bat and bconsole from the client server. The only thing that doesn’t seem to work is to connect from the backupserver to the clientservers file demon.

Any ideas on what could be wrong?

Best regards
Albin
