118 text/brestore with your brestore.pl.
120 ################ POSTGRESQL NOTES ##############################
122 If you think that Mysql is not a great database (or just a toy), you must add

125 psql -u bacula bacula < script/bweb-postgresql.sql
127 ################ BCONSOLE NOTES ################################
129 You must use bconsole without conio/readline support. For that, use
132 ################ BACULA LOG ####################################
134 To use Bweb log engine, you must apply this little patch and have the
135 new Log table in your database.
137 After, you can fill your database with :
139 tail -f /tmp/log.sql | bacula -u bacula bacula
