hello, I wrote something up about monitoring with Nagios, I prefer monitoring each server being backed up for backup status, this means that even if I accidently delete/disable a host from bacula configs I'd still pick it up with my nagios: http://www.devco.net/pubwiki/Bacula/MonitoringWithNagios
You can also create a hourly job that does a watchdog type thing for your nagios: http://www.bacula.org/rel-manual/Tips_Suggestions.html#SECTION000355000000000000000 That way you can be sure your backups are working end to end without connecting to the daemon ports and confusing them.
