<div>:) We can interpret it in many different ways.<br>

<div>It is an actually a bconsole which connects to the
Bacula File Daemon which talks to the Director. The
bconsole and the Bacula FD are the proxy tools in this

Yes you are right. However, there is another part as well.
bconsole (at least by us) is used for testing. The "real" interface
for the user to the Client Initiated Backup is the Tray-Monitor --
i.e. a GUI tool. Consequently either the tray-monitor or bconsole
can be used.<br>

Client can have two meanings and we play on that a bit in this
definition: 1. Client can mean the File Daemon. 2. More commonly
client (at least in the enterprise edition) means the customer
(user).<br>
