Complete!
Start the mysqld service.
[root@linuxhelp1 ~]# service mysqld start
Initializing MySQL database: Installing MySQL system tables...
OK
Filling help tables...
OK
To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy
support-files/mysql.server to the right place for your system
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands:
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password ' new-password'
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h linuxhelp1 password ' new-password'
Alternatively you can run:
/usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation
which will also give you the option of removing the test
databases and anonymous user created by default. This is
strongly recommended for production servers.
See the manual for more instructions.
You can start the MySQL daemon with:
cd /usr /usr/bin/mysqld_safe &
You can test the MySQL daemon with mysql-test-run.pl
cd /usr/mysql-test perl mysql-test-run.pl
Please report any problems with the /usr/bin/mysqlbug script!
[ OK ]
Starting mysqld: [ OK ]
[root@linuxhelp1 ~]# chkconfig mysqld on [root@linuxhelp1 ~]# mysqladmin -u root password linuxc
Create database and necessary tables for Bacula by utilising the following commands.

}
Storage {
Name = File
# Do not use " localhost" here
Address = 192.168.5.111 # N.B. Use a fully qualified name here
SDPort = 9103
Password = " linuxc"
Device = FileStorage
Media Type = File
}
# Generic catalog service
Catalog {
Name = MyCatalog
# Uncomment the following line if you want the dbi driver
# dbdriver = " dbi:sqlite3" dbaddress = 127.0.0.1 dbport =
dbname = " bacula" dbuser = " bacula" dbpassword = " linuxc"
}
#
Console {
