I'm currently using Bacula 5.0.2 on Linux.  It's working great with 3 Linux 
clients (CentOS and Suse).  However, to make things interesting I decided to 
try adding a Windows client.
The bacula-fd.exe -t bacula-fd.conf   test passes on the Windows client.
However, I did notice if I try to run it from c:\program files\bacula, it tries 
to find the bacula-fd.conf in:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Bacula/bacula-fd.conf

So, I had to specify the full path with the command:

bacula-fd.exe -t C:\Program Files\Bacula\bacula-fd.conf

It returns nothing, indicating no errors.

There is no firewall.  I can telnet to the client on port 9102 from the server, 
and it tcp 'connects'.

The configs on the client and server match as they should, the same way they 
match for the working Linux clients.

However, when I try to backup the Windows client I get an error:

I've checked/verified the passwords several dozen times, and they ARE correct 
on the client and server.
Does anyone know of some special Microsoft "feature" preventing this from 
working?  Perhaps the MD5 password hash/algorithm doesn't match?
