Obsolete Releases > SME 8.x Contribs
bacula client not working
compdoc:
I installed bacula-client on my SME 8 server, but I cant connect to it. Its running, and I see its listening on the right port:
# yum install bacula-client
# netstat -nlap | grep bacula
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:9102 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 5916/bacula-fd
# /etc/init.d/bacula-fd status
bacula-fd (pid 5916) is running...
But no connections. I cannot telnet to the port from the SME server or from a peer, and my bacula director wont connect to it. Its not a name or port or password issue.
This should connect, and it shouldnt matter if I use 'localhost' or the actual ip address:
# telnet localhost 9102
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
Any ideas?

You've been here enough to know that we don't know anything about your setup and you are expected to tell us:
- SME mode (server only? server and gateway?)
- if there's anything strange in log files (did you take a look at them?)
Jáder:
I imagine it's not responding because SME firewall is blocking it.
I'd need the results of:
--- Code: ---config show bacula
--- End code ---
to be sure.
I'm thinking you should open firewall using something like this:
--- Code: ---config setprop bacula access private TCPPort 9102
signal-event remoteaccess-update
--- End code ---

jader, thanks for the reply. Its nice when people like you try to help without making judgements or accusations like others here on these boards. Your help is greatly appreciated.
"config show bacula" shows nothing, so I hesitated to enter the command "config setprop bacula access private TCPPort 9102" but decided the entry couldnt hurt. However, it had no effect.
It does seem to be blocked in some way. This is local access only and a quick look at iptables (with my limited understanding of iptables) seems to show all local traffic is allowed. Is there a way to list opened or blocked local ports?
Nothing shows in the logs, although Im not sure which log might be useful. There is no bacula log.
Again, thanks.

since your post had only 2 answers, I guess you are referring to me
there's no kind of accusation or judgement in my words, I have no reason to do so
but you should know that the first rule to have help (because you are coming here asking for help, aren't you?) is to help US to help YOU
you are (likely) thousands miles from here.. I (we) don't know anything about your setup and we can't see your screen or read your mind.

it does not work because is not complete
--- Code: ---config set bacula service access private TCPPort 9102
signal-event remoteaccess-update
--- End code ---
is the right one

is your server in server only mode or server and gateway?
how did you start bacula client?
how did you install bacula client?
since this is not a contrib (i.e. there's no, AFAIK, a smeserver/e-smith bacula rpm), did you search with google howto setup onto CentOS?
if you think I'm here to accuse or judge you just tell me, I will stop trying to help and bother you
