I meant change all instances of 127.0.0.1 and localhost to the external ip address unless you want to limit bacula to only the machine that the director is on. Some over secure distributions supply bacula with default configuration files that cause bacula to be a single machine backup server that can only backup itself and you can only connect to it on the server itself..
