Hi Valeri,

Thanks for this. I haven't looked at FreeBSD since the 1990's or there abouts, 
but I'll give it a look.  

I'm also looking at lubuntu, but was hoping that there was a lcentos. We tend 
to like what we're used to.

I'd be interested in your views on the differences between bacula and Bareos. 
I do have one Bareos storeage device but that's just in Bacula compat mode.
