Just giving my 2cents here: I solved the same problem you're having by using
the /etc/hosts file...
In bacula-dir configs, the I've configured the FD Address parameter with the
FQDN of the bacula-sd server, and on the bacula-fd client, using the hosts
file, I've pointed the FQDN to the IP of the firewall that will translate
the address...
Apparently, if you use the FQDN on the bacula-dir configs, I'll only be
resolved on the bacula-fd by the time it will send the data to the
bacula-sd, so it worked just fine.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
