Hello,

I have just released the Bacula 1.36.2 tar file to Source Forge. The rpms and 
other files should be coming shortly.

This version corrects a number of bugs found in version 1.36.1, and has a good 
number of new features.

Bacula 1.36.2 is compatible with 1.36.0 and 1.36.1 daemons, but I do recommend 
that you upgrade all components as soon as possible.

Best regards,

Kern


          Release Notes for Bacula 1.36.2

  Bacula code: Total files = 398 Total lines = 117,915 (*.h *.c *.in)

Major Changes to version 1.36.2:
- Applied all fixes for bugs since version 1.36.1 (see below)
- Added new directives from 1.37 code (see below).
- Applied Tim's patch for ACLS.
- Eight new options keywords in a FileSet resource:
  ignorecase, fstype, hfsplussupport, wilddir, wildfile, regexdir,
  and regexfile, hardlinks. See below for details.
- Fix deadlock in multiple simultaneous jobs.
- Fix tape "truncation"/"number of files" after restore bug.
- Fix ClientRun jobs on Win32 to faile if the 
  return code is not zero.

New Directives in 1.36.2:
- New Options keywords in a FileSet directive:
  - WildDir xxx
    Will do a wild card match against directories (files will not
    be matched).
  - WildFile xxx
    Will do a wild card match against files (directories will not
    be matched).
  - RegexDir xxx
    Will do a regular expression match against directories (files
    will not be matched).
  - RegexFile xxx
    Will do a regular expression match against files( directories
    will not be matched).
  - IgnoreCase = yes | no
    Will ignore case in wild card and regular expression matches.
    This is handy for Windows where filename case is not significant.
  - FsType = string
    where string is a filesystem type: ext2, jfs, ntfs, proc,
    reiserfs, xfs, usbdevfs, sysfs, smbfs, iso9660.  For ext3
    systems, use ext2.  You may have multiple fstype directives
    and thus permit multiple filesystem types.  If the type
    specified on the fstype directive does not match the
    filesystem for a particular directive, that directory will
    not be backed up.  This directive can be used to prevent
    backing up non-local filesystems.
  - HFS Plus Support = yes | no 
    If set, Mac OS X resource forks will be saved and restored.
- In FileSet, you can exclude backing up of hardlinks (if you have
  a lot, it can be very expensive), by using:
    HardLinks = no
  in the Options section. Patch supplied by David R Bosso. Thanks.

New Commands:
- None since 1.36.1

Items to note for 1.36.2!!!
- Dan has reminded us that the arguments for make_catalog_backup
  changed from 1.34.x to 1.36.1. The old arguments were typically
  "-U bacula".  The new arguments are typically "bacula bacula",
  where the first is the database name, and the second is the
  user name.

Patches applied:

03Dec04  1.36.1-pool.patch
 This patch should hold jobs in the Director's start queue if
 more than one simultaneous backup job wants to use the same
 Storage device with two different Pools (i.e. 2 Volumes).

03Dec04  1.16.1-slots.patch
 This patch should fix "update slots" with two different
 magazines in different pools by checking the pool when zapping
 the InChanger.

18Dec04 1.36.1-spool.patch
 This patch fixes the despooling size printed in the Job 
 report. Previously, it reported the total size for the
 device. This patch makes it report the size for the job.

21Dec04 1.36.1-store.patch
 This patch fixes a problem with overriding storage daemon
 specifications. Previously they were not always honored.
 This implements more uniform handling. It also eliminates
 an orphaned buffer situation using JobDefs.

21Dec04 1.36.1-reload.patch
 This patch fixes Bacula so that it does not exit if there
 is a syntax error in its conf file during a reload command.

24Dec04 1.36.1-fileset.patch
 This patch should correct a seg fault in the FD that occurs
 at the end of a job when the job uses old style include/excludes.
 Old style include/excludes are deprecated and should be
 converted to the new style as soon as possible.

30Jan05 1.36.1-acl.patch
 This patch fixes some typos with ACL checking that results
 in the incorrect name being used for the check.
 This fixes possible security problems with unwanted 
 access by restricted consoles.

15Feb05 1.36.1-truncate.patch
 This patch fixes a bug where a tape gets "truncated" after
 doing a restore. The number of files in the catalog do not
 agree with what Bacula thinks is on tape, then the tape is
 marked in error.
