Hello Everyone, I have two Installs of FreeBSD, the first one is a server and the other one is a client. When I use the server to backup itself it works fine. But when I want to backup the client to the server, the job status is just stuck at R (Running [I checked this using
I added two more files and it showed
So it can see the files but not back them up.
Any ideas on what is the problem?
This is my bacula-fd.conf FreeBSD Client (the one I want to backup)
And my bacula-dir.conf FreeBSD Server (the one I want to backup to)
Even after 20 minutes have passed the job status is still stuck at R.
I searched for guides on the internet about bacula remote backups but it still didn't work.
Can someone shed some light in this?
*list jobs]). I thought that maybe the server and the client couldn't communicate properly so I ran *estimate just to check, and it returned
