The problem with your problem description is that no one knows what do
you call the "restore folder" hence it's hard to make educated guesses
about what went wrong: FD does not create the files or FD does create
(replace ?) the files in a place you do not expect it to.

In any case, a way to go would be to run the FD command in foreground on
vm-lespointus-fd or at least check its log file after the restore job
finishes (or first increase the log verbosity using the "-v" and/or "-d"
command-line options of the FD program) -- I expect it to log where
it has been directed to restore the files.

That said, I personally had no problems restoring a bunch of files on a
Windows 2003 server and Windows XP, using Bacula 5.0.3 running on a
Debian system.
