+Either a firewall or a router may decide to timeout and terminate
+open connections if they are not active for a short time. By Internet
+standards the period should be two hours, and should be indefinitely
+extended if KEEPALIVE is set as is the case by Bacula. If your firewall
+or router does not respect these rules, you may find Bacula connections
+terminated. In that case, the first thing to try is turning on the
+{\bf Heart Beat Interval} both in the File daemon and the Storage daemon
+and set an interval of say five minutes.
+
+Also, if you have denial of service rate limiting in your firewall, this
+too can cause Bacula disconnects since Bacula can at times use very high
+access rates. To avoid this, you should implement default accept
+rules for the Bacula ports involved before the rate limiting rules.

Bacula version 1.33 (not 1.32x) is now working and ready for testing with the
OnStream kernel osst driver version 0.9.14 or above. Osst is available from:
-\elink{http://sourceforge.net/projects/osst/}{http://sourceforge.net/projects/%
-osst/}.

To make Bacula work you must first load the new driver then, as root, do:
