Have you verified the DIR is actually running ('ps -lfC bacula-dir' 
for example), listening on the network interface and port (better 
don't use localhost, network backups will not work...) with something 
like 'netstat -tulpen | grep bacula-dir', and no firewall interferes?

Also, I assume you try to run bconsole on the same host the DIR runs on...
