As you already said, you could use a site-to-site vpn. I don't know your
network, but if a non-openvpn site-to-site vpn would works, I guess you could
also use one openvpn instance on both sides to establish a site-to-site
connection.
Or you could nat multiple ports to multiple clients. For example: your offical
IP is 123.123.123.123. your internal clients have the IPs 192.168.0.1,
192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3, 192.168.0.4. You then could nat
123.123.123.123:9111 to 192.168.0.1,
123.123.123.123:9112 to 192.168.0.2,
123.123.123.123:9113 to 192.168.0.3,
123.123.123.123:9114 to 192.168.0.4
...
Personally I would definitely recommend a site-to-site vpn!
Kind regards
Julian

Betreff: [Bacula-users] FD behind NAT
Forgive me if this has been asked and answered.
I have a client (FD) behind NAT and I am look for ways to initiate backup jobs
from the server without port forwarding on the client side.
I have read numerous articles of how to resolve issues with the server (DIR/SD)
being behind NAT but to me this is easy. I have even looked over the "Dealing
with Firewalls" section of the manual. In order for bacula to work Dir must be
able to contact FD to tell it to start the backup. Port forwarding is not an
option as we have numerous clients, Linux and Windows, behind NAT and we cannot
assign an external IP to each internal FD. To me this means I have to have a
site-to-site VPN tunnel or clients each running OpenVPN for example.
I am hoping somone can point me towards something I missed.
