What’s new in Bareos 18
summary
Bareos 18 ships as the next major release and is available on older distributions, moving core to C++11 and adding automatic TLS for network connections. It implements certificate-based client authentication and a dynamic user-auth module (PAM-style) so console passwords are no longer static, and it adds cross-build tooling to produce Windows binaries. MySQL database testing is underway and large legacy configuration scripts (~6,000 lines) are being simplified; the new features are reported as working.
