For those running BEE version 12.6 and later, you can benefit from a new Windows Bacula FD installer wizard which configures all your FD settings on the Director and the File Daemon in a simple manner. Once you will have created the FD registration on BWeb, you simply copy a registration URL that can be entered into the Windows FD registration wizard that will configure the local FD. Finally, all you have to do is create a backup job and run it. Please see the demonstration video here.
