I think I owe an explanation of this problem.

First I couldn't ping my bacula server. That was because dhcp had changed the IP-address (blush).

Secondly the file daemon on Windows 2000 couldn't connect to the server. That was because iptables was blocking the connection (another blush). I wasn't aware that iptables is a firewall but after having opened up for port 9103 to tcp, back-up of the windows client went just smooth.

I am slowly learning the various ramifications of linux and I am getting more and more impressed.

Thanks to those of you who took the time to give me your advice.
