Hi!
I am trying do do my first installation of Bacula 5.0.2, but I am running into 
trouble with the connection between bacula-dir and Mysql.
I tried running bacula-dir with debug:

backup:~ # /opt/bacula-5.0.2/sbin/bacula-dir -d 100 -f
bacula-dir: dird.c:184-0 Debug level = 100

Please correct configuration file: bacula-dir.conf

I think the problem are the socket file above. I have configured the Mysql 
server as a Mysql multi installation to be able to run several Mysql instances, 
which means I am not using the default socket file.

The relevant part of my my.cnf:

[mysqld1]
port       = 3306
datadir    = /mysql/bacula
pid-file   = /var/lib/mysql/mysqld1.pid
socket     = /var/lib/mysql/mysqld1.sock
user       = mysql

The catalog configuration from bacula-dir.conf:

# Generic catalog service
Catalog {
  Name = MyCatalog
# Uncomment the following line if you want the dbi driver
# dbdriver = "dbi:mysql"; dbaddress = 127.0.0.1; dbport = 3306
  dbname = "bacula"
  dbuser = "bacula"
  dbpassword = "XXXXXXXXX"
}

Is it possible to configure the bacula-dir to use a non standard socket file or 
even better, to connect over tcp ?
