Check your firewall. I'm just reporting what I experienced. When I use localhost, it works. When I use the server's IP address, it fails. I don't have a firewall on my server. I am running fail2ban however. AFAIK that doesn't block ports. And a local IP address shouldn't go through the router's firewall. _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
