Hello,
in the examples/nagios/check_bacula sub-directory of the Bacula source code there is the Nagios plugin (an executable) that is able to connect to all the daemons using the configured "monitor" resource.
I use that extensively and I've always found it very useful. It is compatible with Bacula Enterprise Edition as well; so you can monitor daemons from any version.
The packages is available in Fedora 15/16/17/rawhide as "nagios-plugins-bacula" or if you're running CentOS/RHEL/Fedora and want the latest version look here:
http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/slaanesh/bacula/README.txt
If you want to run it somewhere else here is a snippet of the spec file code required to compile it:
pushd examples/nagios/check_bacula
CFLAGS="%{optflags}" %{__make} LIBS="-lpthread -ldl -lssl -lcrypto -lz"
Regards,
--Simone

are passive and only chirp if they haven't been updated in X time. It
