[Bug 286643] Re: bacula client configuration is broken out of the box

[Ante Karamatić]

I would just like to present my opinion on this one...

This change was introduced in Debian as fix for Debian bug 367105:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=367105

Both configurations have valid use cases. I'm kind of in favor of
having bacula file daemon listening only on localhost, as it is now.

Why? Here is why...

Bacula will never work out of box, cause of lots of configuration
options that should be changed after installation. Changing listening
IP address is just a tip of an iceberg.

On the other hand, people that don't have any clue about bacula, and
are just testing the software, are in danger. I would advise not
changing default at least until we solve bug #222558 - each bacula
client and daemon have the same password. This is cause password is
generated on compile time.

IMHO, talking about this and working on this issue should be
post-intrepid.
