[Bacula-users] Client PC Authentication Problem

[Vic B. <vb...@dn...>]

Hello,

=20

I have a Linux server running fedora core 3. I downloaded and compiled
the source for Bacula 1.36.1 and then installed from the compiled
source.

I can make a backup of the Linux server through the bconsole interface
however when I try to back up a windows XP client through the win32
bacula-fd.exe file I always get an authentication error. I have
researched this for days and still have no clue as to how to resolve it.
I have checked and rechecked every password and name option in every
*.conf I can find for bacula. I can connect from the client pc though
the wx-console program but every time I run the back up I get the
following back:

Is this a bug with the program submitting wrong random passwords that
unique for each job or am I missing something simple in the
configuration files. I will be happy to send anything that is needed for
fixing the problem (like my *.conf files or whatever else may be needed)

Thanks
