I am trying to get bacula to backup my server to a directory on a NAS box, 
which is permanently mounted as /home/backup on the server
The backups always fail with a  "bsock.c:203 gethostbyname() for host "/home 
backup" failed: ERR=Authoritative answer for host not found"
I cannot understand why the director needs to use gethostbyname at all. The 
directory is local to it anyway; and I get the same error when I point it at 
the /tmp directory on the machine itself
Here is the storage section of my bacula-dir.conf

# Definition of file storage device
Storage {
  Name = NAS
# Do not use "localhost" here    
  Address = /home/backup/MailserverBackup             # N.B. Use a fully 
qualified name here
   SDPort = 9103
  Password = "iNe0Athgk0Rjx_FeG3bZFDq94HS6xL5N4"
  Device = FileStorage
  Media Type = File
}

Must be something really simple, but I cannot see it. Please help
