Hello,

I discovered a little bug in authentication.c around line 269.
Every time a non bacula client (telnet / portscan / etc.) connects to the
bacula-dir port and disconnects, this errormessages appears in the
console:

31-Aug 09:17 backup1-dir: ERROR in authenticate.c:269 UA Hello from
client:85.119.156.227:36131 is invalid. Len=0 31-Aug 09:22 backup1-dir:
ERROR in authenticate.c:269 UA Hello from client:85.119.156.227:36131 is
invalid. Len=0 31-Aug 09:27 backup1-dir: ERROR in authenticate.c:269 UA
Hello from client:85.119.156.227:36131 is invalid. Len=0

Two questions for you.

1) I don't think this is a bug; it is quite normal for something to log unauthorized attempts to connect. I assume Bacula is sending these messages to syslog, and that your syslog config is causing them to appear on the console.

2) Could you please verify whether it exists in 2.2.0, which is now in unstable.

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't meant the unix console, I meant the bacula console :)

I don't want to use the 2.2.0 version, because this is a productive Etch server for backuping our whole server farm.
