This would be a good way to setup Bacula.  The Director, SD and catalog
work well on a Ubuntu server -- I recommend Trusty (14.04).  For the
Mac's someone probably has made the binaries and distributes them on the
Internet.  Otherwise if you load all the appropriate build tools on the
Mac, you can easily build the FD.   Later this year, Bacula Systems will
provide free binaries for MacOSX which should also help.

If you have the budget, I *strongly* recommend taking the Bacula Systems
Admin I training.  It will provide you with everything you need to know
and if you ask in advance, they can probably help you with the Mac builds.

Best regards,
Kern
