It is common for initial NTP or rdate set failures (usually caused by 
conection refused on the server) to result in the date being set to 2039 
or 1970.

It's an ancient and well known bug in the client software which has never 
been fixed

The time usually needs to be corrected manually after this happens. A lot 
of programs react badly to utime jumping backwards, not just Bacula.
