FTR, no bug report is useless IMHO: this one actually let you know how the Bacula database configuration is managed. > everytime I modify my database settings I should run dpkg-reconfigure? > doing the work twice?

The second option: since the database configuration is managed, centrally, by dbconfig-common, you should not touch it by hand, but with dpkg-reconfigure. Doing this should update: 1) /etc/dbconfig-common/bacula-director-mysql.conf 2) all the relevant files in /etc/bacula/ Feel free to ask for more, if needed :-) Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
