Can you telnet to it on the fd port? I would first try that on the client
system, and assuming it makes a connection, try it again from the director
system. If it fails to connect from that system then you've got some sort of
firewall issue.

The bacula registry key has this in it for bacula-fd.exe execution:

"C:\Program Files\Bacula\bacula-fd.exe" /service  -c "C:\Program
Files\Bacula\bacula-fd.conf"

That is the correct location of bacula-fd.conf. In a command window, this
command seems to work:

PS C:\Program Files\Bacula> .\bacula-fd -c C:\Program
Files\Bacula\bacula-fd.conf"


At least, after I use that command, I have these ">>" in the shell, and not
an error message. After that, I still can't connect to the fd though from
the director...
