Package: bacula-common
Version: 1.36.2-2sarge1
Severity: important

Hi,

tcpwrappers looks for the service name of the bacula daemons in hosts.allow,
and the service names of these daemons is configured to be different from the
binary! The service names are configured to be %hostname%-%component%
rather than bacula-dir for example. (As defined in the
./bacula-1.36.2/src/dird/bacula-dir.conf.in file from the bacula Debian source.)

So the hosts.allow entry has to match %hostname%-%component% (servername-dir
for example) instead of bacula-%component%

This means that if the hosts.allow file has the entry:
bacula-dir: ALL
you will not be able to run bconsole to connect to the local director!
The entry will have to read:
server-dir: ALL
and this will allow the console to connect to the director.
(The process running is bacula-dir.)

The manual page for bacula should contain information that tells the user
about this configuration quirk.
