[Bacula-users] Bacula version 5.2.4 released

Hello,

A few days ago, we released Bacula version 5.2.4 to Source Forge.
There are quite a number of fixes and updates as you can see in
the ReleaseNotes included below.

We haven't tested bat in the Windows binaries, but have noticed
that there was a small discrepancy between the .dlls and the header
files we used to build it, so if you have problems with it, please let me
know and I will build a corrected version.

Best regards,
Kern
