WOW!  These are the same versions of Ubuntu.  Why in the world are they such
different versions?  Apparently, I built newer versions for my Director, and
completely forgot about it when I added the bacula-sd package to the new
server.  Fixing that now, and I will let you know the outcome...

OK, it indeed appears to have been a version mis-match.  I feel very foolish
because I was so convinced this was not the case, when I Googled the
problem, that I did not even check it!  Thank you so much for taking the
time to help me with this.

I've just done this.  I originally did have them different, so that I could
run simultaneous backups, but I changed them to the same again, for
troubleshooting purposes.
