Have you done the more basic, suggested tests from the manual? namely 
btape and local backup and restore?

Then, all you need would be in the manual, though not in the form of a 
tutorial.

Rough outline:
- Install FD on XP machine
- Set up the client (most important, password)
- Set up the client for Bacula (Client resource - address and password 
are essential)
- Test basic communication using 'sta client=<xp-name>'
- Set up a minimal test fileset
- Set up a job
- run this job manually
- restore from this job

Then, things should be good for production use...
