[Bacula-users] Several questions

[Carl T. H. <ca...@mi...>]

a).  I started off with all the names the same. Seemed to work. Then I 
changed the Storage Dir name to Bacula-sd, like your example. But I dont see 
the name ever referenced. Does that matter? What do all these names mean.
b). I think the Win98 fd was working until I changed the name (of the 
StorageDir). Why would it matter? I thought the director talked to fd's and 
sd's. When I do
status client
prompt> WinClient

it sits there and cannot connect even  though I've made sure it was running.
 
c). I thought I read that the Win client was started automatically on bootup, 
but that does not happen for me. I have to start it manually. 
d).  When I put the mouse over the tape icon, after it's started, the icon 
disappears.
e). when I type 'messages', they all scroll by, How do I reread them.
f). I've been (apparently) backing up sucessfully for several days on Unix 
(but  failing on Windows). I inadvertently used the same schedule for the Win 
backup as Unix--would that cause a problem?
g). When I do 'query' then 1 or 2, it replies "Could not find query."
So it 'seems' to be working. When I do status all, it replies with what look 
like reasonable responses, except for the Windows client:
