The short version:
As a general rule, each password used by Bacula is defined twice, at
source and at destination.  For instance, each client's password is
defined in the bacula-fd.conf file on the client, and in the
corresponding Client record in the Director's configuration.  Both
definitions must match.

For a hypothetical example, in the Director configuration::

Client {
  Name = MyClient
  Address = myclient.mydomain.net
  Password = "Here Is A Password Involving Llamas"
  ...
}

And on the corresponding client:

#
# List Directors who are permitted to contact this File daemon
#
Director {
  Name = MyDirector
  Password = "Here Is A Password Involving Llamas"
}

So, the Director knows it is to contact the client at that address,
using that password; and the client knows it is to accept connections
from that director, using that same password.  Both the Director and the
client have to know which password is to be used to authenticate between
them.
