rpmbuild --rebuild --define 'build_su9 1' --define 'build_mysql5 1' bacula-2.0.2-1.src.rpm

Version 1.38.0 of bacula supports SSL/TLS when compiled from source, but the available RPMS were not built with SSL/TLS support.

I installed the available RPM first so I could replace the binaries with SSL-enabled ones.

I downloaded the source package for 1.38.x (tar.gz) and did a configure with SSL and the options I found in the .spec file of the SRC rpm: <p><strong>Server:</strong></p>

./configure \
        --prefix=/usr \
        --sbindir=/usr/sbin \
        --sysconfdir=/etc/bacula \
        --with-scriptdir=/etc/bacula \
        --enable-smartalloc \
        --with-openssl \
        --with-sqlite \
        --with-working-dir=/var/bacula \
        --with-pid-dir=/var/run \
        --with-subsys-dir=/var/lock/subsys \
        --with-dir-user=bacula \
        --with-dir-group=bacula \
        --with-sd-user=bacula \
        --with-sd-group=disk \
        --with-fd-user=root \
        --with-fd-group=bacula \
        --with-readline

<strong>Client (fd):</strong>

./configure \
        --prefix=/usr \
        --sbindir=/usr/sbin \
        --sysconfdir=/etc/bacula \
        --with-scriptdir=/etc/bacula \
        --enable-smartalloc \
        --with-openssl \
        --enable-client-only \
        --with-working-dir=/var/bacula \
        --with-pid-dir=/var/run \
        --with-subsys-dir=/var/lock/subsys

and installed the binaries over top of the RPM ones:

make -j6

make -C src/dird/ install
make -C src/console/ install
make -C src/filed/ install
make -C src/stored/ install

This is a complete source installation, not replacing existing packages (since there are none for 1.38 yet)

apt-get install mysql-server libmysqlclient15-dev libssl-dev libreadline5-dev

/usr/sbin/useradd -c 'Bacula' -d /var/lib/bacula -m -k /dev/null -g bacula -u 90 -s /bin/bash bacula

        --with-readline
make -j6 && make install

cd /etc/init.d/ && ln -s /etc/bacula/bacula . && /usr/sbin/update-rc.d bacula defaults

cd /etc/bacula

The first time, generate a new CA certificate for signing

sed -i 's/365'/3650'/' /usr/lib/ssl/misc/CA.pl
/usr/lib/ssl/misc/CA.pl -newca

Generate a CSR signing request, and then sign it. The challenge password can be empty, but be sure the Common Name matches the DNS name you will use to connect to the remote bacula-fd server!

/usr/lib/ssl/misc/CA.pl -newreq-nodes
SSLEAY_CONFIG='-days 3650' /usr/lib/ssl/misc/CA.pl -sign

mv newkey.pem bacula-<client>.key  -OR-  head -15 newreq.pem > bacula-<client>.key
mv newcert.pem bacula-<client>.crt

copy (scp) <tt>bacula-<client>.key</tt> <tt>bacula-<client>.crt</tt> and <tt>cacert.pem</tt> to the FD client machine and change ownership/permissions.

chmod 640 bacula-<client>.* cacert.pem
chgrp bacula bacula-<client>.* cacert.pem
