Hi, you keep saying you "forwarded" the ports. I don't think that that is the correct way to use the firewall rules, unless you are trying to create a new terminology or are confused. The ports, per the firewall doc, need to be open. In my setup I use iptables rules to open the specific ports for the specific directors and their ports and/or clients for their ports. Looks something like this on the client side:
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere directorname.mydomain.ext tcp dpt:bacula-sd ACCEPT tcp -- directorname.mydomain.ext anywhere tcp dpt:bacula-fd And like this on the director side: ACCEPT tcp -- clientname.mydomain.ext anywhere tcp dpt:bacula-sd So there are no FORWARDING statements in that configuration, I would consider this, test the telnet statements that folk have posted, that should point in the right direction.
