Excellent software. I backup 2TB of data weekly from Windows and Linux servers to a disk array ( full and incremental backups ) using it and have restored hundreds of thousands of files with no problems at all.

Awesome piece of code!
Switched from Amanda to Bacula due to it's capabilities of authentification.

I've got Bacula server running on 20 machines, including
FreeBSD, Linux and Windows. Right now they perform total
of 200 backup jobs (of every kinds of platforms) per
night, and the number is growing weekly :)

Very flexible and well customizable.
