ssh-tunnel solutions requires that on the fd machine. There sshd listens
on localhost on behalf of SD, and forwards the connection over the tunnel.

The document is on Bacula wiki page, and it works. I have implemented
ssh-tunneling per the document, and I have no problems.

Are you sure you have the FQDN in the Bacula config file, and not the
172.xx IP-address?

I have followed the same doc, and my setup just works.
