[pkg-bacula-devel] Bug#679479: bacula-fd fails to start because network is not initialized

[Tom Epperly]

Package: bacula-fd
Version: 5.2.6+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

bacula-fd does not start when I boot my machine. I am not sure which 
upgrade stopped bacula-fd, but it hasn't been working for a while.

My machine used to use ifup/ifdown to manage initializing eth1 and 
initiating
DHCP to get the IP address etc. Some upgrade switched it to use
NetworkManager to initiate DHCP.

This is the error message flashes on the screen during boot up.

[....] Starting Bacula File daemon...:28-Jun 20:20 bacula-fd: ERROR 
TERMINATION
at address_conf.c:521
Config error: can't add port (faerun.epperly.home) to (can't resolve 
hostname(fa
erun.epperly.home) Non-authoritative for host not found, or ServerFail.)
             : line 49, col 33 of file /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf
   FDAddress = faerun.epperly.home

  failed!

This happens no my home desktop, and it also happens on my Ubuntu
laptop at work.

I tried adding $network to the Required-Start for the init.d/bacula-fd
script, but it didn't fix the problem.

I can "service bacula-fd start" just fine from a terminal window once 
the network is initialized.

Tom
