Hello, Marius.

Thank you for your quick reply.
I tried telnet (Firewalls inactive), but was not able to connect to the client.
Adding the FDAddress to the config file did not work either. When testing it, I always get the error "Keyword not permitted in this resource."

I typed it like this:

FileDaemon {        
  Name = Windows-fd
  FDport = 9102  

  FDAddress = 10.1.1.2

  WorkingDirectory = "C:\\Program Files\\Bacula\\working"
  Pid Directory = "C:\\Program Files\\Bacula\\working"
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
}

I don't know, if this helps, but I also tried "netstat -an | findstr 910[123]" on the windows machine to check the ports and got this result:
TCP    0.0.0.0:9102            0.0.0.0:0             LISTEN
TCP    10.1.1.3:64135        10.1.1.2:9101    CREATED

Regards,
Florian

Hi,

Can you telnet to client's 9102 port from director's machine? If firewall is not active, I'd suggest you also specify FDAddress in FileDaemon configuration to make sure daemon listens on correct network interface.

Regards,
Marius

Hello.

First let me say that i am new to bacula and have little experience with Linux in general.

I managed to compile and install Bacula 7.0.4 on a virtual machine with ubuntu server 12.0.4.
I wanted to do some tests by using my actual machine (Windows 7 x64) as client, running bacula-fd 5.2.10 on it.

All the bacula components are running and server and client are connected (at least i can ping one machine from the other). I did the setup so that the client has the local IP 10.1.1.3 and the server uses the IP 10.1.1.2. (only for test purposes)

Whenever I try to run a job or check the status of the windows file daemon though, the director is unable to connect.
The firewall is not causing the problem. I even deactivated it for one test.
I checked the config multiple times and, how I understood it, it looked perfectly fine.

Here is part of the client config:
------------------------------------------
FileDaemon {        
  Name = Windows-fd
  FDport = 9102  
  WorkingDirectory = "C:\\Program Files\\Bacula\\working"
  Pid Directory = "C:\\Program Files\\Bacula\\working"
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
}

Director {
  Name = ubuntu-dir
  Password = "baculaWindows"
}
------------------------------------------

And this is the corresponding part from the director config:
------------------------------------------
Director {
  Name = ubuntu-dir
  DIRport = 9101
  QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/query.sql"
  WorkingDirectory = "/var/lib/bacula"
  PidDirectory = "/var/run"
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 10
  Password = "baculaconsole"
  Messages = Daemon
}

Client {
  Name = Windows-fd
  Address = 10.1.1.3
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password = "baculaWindows"
  File Retention = 60 days
  Job Retention = 6 months
  AutoPrune = yes
}
------------------------------------------

I looked up various tutorials and am rather stuck here. Any help is highly appreciated.
