Re: [Bacula-users] Backup to a network share

[Mehrdad R. <meh...@am...>]

Thanks, i think u nailed it, it could have been that

But putting the ip in the config file did not help, but it worked after 
i did an mklink /d to the share IP, previously, i had done it to a 
mapped network drive

Thanks  for the help, appreciate it

Regards /Mehrdad
