Example File Daemon Configuration File

An example File Daemon configuration file might be the following:

# Default Bacula File Daemon Configuration file
#
# For Bacula release 1.35.2 (16 August 2004) -- gentoo 1.4.16
#
# There is not much to change here except perhaps to
#
# set the Director’s name and File daemon’s name
#
# to something more appropriate for your site.
#

# List Directors who are permitted to contact this File daemon
Director {
    Name = rufus-dir
    Password = "/LqPRkX++saVyQE7w7mmiFg/qxYc1kufww6FEyY/47jU"
}

# Restricted Director, used by tray-monitor to get the
#
# status of the file daemon
Director {
    Name = rufus-mon
    Password = "FYpq4yyI1y562EMS35bA0J0QC0M2L3t5cZObxT3XQxgxppTn"
    Monitor = yes
}

# "Global" File daemon configuration specifications
FileDaemon {
    # this is me
    Name = rufus-fd
    WorkingDirectory = $HOME/bacula/bin/working
    Pid Directory = $HOME/bacula/bin/working
}

# Send all messages except skipped files back to Director
Messages {
    Name = Standard
    director = rufus-dir = all, !skipped
}
