Can WebUI run on a different machine?

[Mike Scholfield]

Hi all

I've been trying my hardest to find how to connect WebUI to a director on another machine but I just can't get it set up. Has anyone got a link to an article describing the setup?

Thanks

The installation is basically identical to the installation on a Bareos
Director.

Just follow the instruction on
https://docs.bareos.org/IntroductionAndTutorial/BareosWebui.html#installation

including
https://docs.bareos.org/IntroductionAndTutorial/BareosWebui.html#minimal-configuration

and than configure the file /etc/bareos-webui/directors.ini,
see
https://docs.bareos.org/IntroductionAndTutorial/BareosWebui.html#configure-your-etc-bareos-webui-directors-ini

Normally you just have to set diraddress.

That's all.

Regards,
Jörg

You're right, I got it working with your advice. I think I just needed someone to tell me it wasn't rocket science to give me the confidence to bang my head on the wall one more time.
