I have been trying to set up a bacula install to backup our various 
systems. Most of our systems run OpenSuse 10.x except for an exchange 
server which runs Windows Server 2003(this also happens to be the server 
with the Tape Drive). I have installed Bacula 2.2.9-b6 on the Windows 
Server, the Linux Servers are all running 2.2.8-1 installed from the 
su102.i586 rpm. I have successfully gotten the windows director to 
connect to the Linux file daemons. However when i attempt to execute a 
backup its returns with the following error report.

18-May 11:32 vader JobId 49: Fatal error: Network error with FD during

When i watch the status of the FD it appears to be iterating through the 
files on the client end, but dies either during that or after that. I 
went through the user manuels and forms to try and find similar problems 
but have been unable to find any information. Below are the relative 
config files, any help or advice would be appreciated.

JobDefs {
  Name = "yoda"
  Type = Backup
  Level = Full
  Client = yoda-fd
  FileSet = "yoda-srv"
  Schedule = "WeeklyCycle"
  Storage = File
  Messages = Standard
  Pool = Default
  Priority = 10
}

Job {
  Name = "Yoda-backup"
  JobDefs = "yoda"
  Write Bootstrap = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application 
Data\\Bacula\\Work\\yoda.bsr"
}
FileSet{
  Name = "yoda-srv"
  Include {
    Options {
      signature = MD5
      ignore case = yes
    }
    File = "/srv"
    File = "/etc/apache2"
    File = "/var/log"
    File = "/etc/mysql.cnf"
 
  }
}
Client {
  Name = yoda-fd
  Address = <omitted>
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = MyCatalog
  Password = "g3n35151.1"     # password for FileDaemon 2

}
