On FreeBSD, I'd do: $ netstat -na | grep 9102 tcp4 0 0 *.9102 *.* LISTEN That's bacula-fd Then: $ telnet 127.0.0.1 9102 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. TYPEJUNKHERE Connection closed by foreign host. You might also want to try the public IP address that bacula-fd should be listening on: $ telnet 10.55.0.67 9102 Trying 10.55.0.67... Connected to ngaio.unixathome.org. Escape character is '^]'.
