Hello Ana,
I was able to ping the ip and nmap with the port too from both machines to another. Telnet failed though for security reasons. But I believe it doesn't matter anyway because ping and nmap tests were successful.
The passwords are double checked so this can't be the reason too.
The error messages I get are:
"Fatal error: Unable to authenticate with File daemon at "(client's IP):9102". Possible causes:
Passwords or names not the same or
Maximum Concurrent Jobs exceeded on the FD or
FD networking messed up (restart daemon)."

Could it be something with the Storage? By the way, when I run the backup job at the director, the job gets stuck running for at least 5' minutes. So I believe the IPs and ports are ok, otherwise it should have failed in a matter of seconds or a minute, right?
