The problem here is that the permissions of the directory (/var/lib/bacula
or /var/bacula depending on your OS) really should be 770
or possibly 760. As long as the permissions are 770 and the user bacula is in
the group bacula, then the file can be owned by root.

root:bacula can and does work as I stated in a previous email, and as I state
above -- providing you have the other items setup correctly (permissions,
group memberships, ...).
There should also be no problem if the directory is owned by bacula:bacula.
