Are you sure this actually took effect (ie did you "pg_ctl reload")?

30-Mar 17:47 collab-dir: BeforeJob: run command "/etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup bacula postgres 'md5xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'" 30-Mar 17:47 collab-dir: BeforeJob: pg_dump: [archiver (db)] connection to database "bacula" failed: FATAL: Ident authentication failed for user "postgres"

It's clear that this connection is trying to use ident not md5.
Either you didn't make the pg_hba edit take effect, or bacula
is trying to use TCP instead of Unix-socket connection and you
still have the "host" line set to ident.

                        regards, tom lane

The bizarre thing is that removing #ident sameuser solved it

clearly the # is not parsed correctly after a statement

cheers
