I need to install Bacula client

[jarif]

I think I was told that OPNsense distro is somewhat plain FreeBSD+OPENsense and removing OPNsense would render me a FreeBSD.

In FreeBSD the command # pkg search bacula would output:

bacula-bat-7.4.7               Network backup solution (GUI)
bacula-client-7.4.7            Network backup solution (client)
bacula-client-static-7.4.7     Network backup solution (static client)
bacula-docs-7.4.4              Bacula document set
bacula-server-7.4.7            Network backup solution (server)
bacula-web-7.2.0               Bacula-web provides a summarized output of Bacula jobs
bacula5-bat-5.2.12_6           Network backup solution (GUI)
bacula5-client-5.2.12_2        Network backup solution (client)
bacula5-client-static-5.2.12_2 Network backup solution (static client)
bacula5-docs-5.2.12            Bacula document set
bacula5-server-5.2.12_2        Network backup solution (server)
nagios-check_bacula-7.4.7_3    Nagios plugin for Bacula
nagios-check_bacula5-5.2.12_2  Nagios plugin for Bacula

In my fresh OPNsense fresh install it renders nothing.

I need bacula-client to have backups, and maybe this nagios-plugin too. How? I do not want to compile from source.

ATM there's no pkg available for OPN but you can send a FR at github if you like.

OPNsense has it's own repository for packages (plugins).
The plugin page, using the web config, will show you all that are available atm.

Like jarif mentions, you can request one using github.

Outside the configuration, you can make OPNsense pretty much stateless and thereby remove the need for backup. Proper change control dictates that you create a backup prior to modifying the configuration anyway, and there is a Google drive option for regular configuration backups.

For transient data, Netflow can direct traffic stats to an external host, remote logging can do the same for system messages while the Zabbix plugin and Monit are at least comparable to Nagios.

Is there any feature in your wishlist that meets your requirements better than these? Be careful of thinking of every problem as a nail, just because your only tool is a hammer ;-)

Thanks fellows. I leave my hammer down this time
