Actually I just figured this out.
I needed the bootstrap files, and the directory that bacula writes the
backups in, to be owned by user 'bacula' and group 'bacula'.
And it seemed like I needed to create the bootstrap files manually:
touch /data/bootstrap/client1.bsr
touch /data/bootstrap/client2.bsr
chown -R bacula.bacula /data/bootstrap
It seems that even though the dir and sd daemons are running as root,
they need the directories they write to be to be owned by bacula.bacula.
Is that normal to have to do that? I didn't see it in the manual, but I
may have missed it...

Hi Y'all,
We have two RHEL 6 servers, one is running bacula-dir and bacula-sd
(with a lot of disk storage for the backups), and the other is the
client we want to back up from running bacula-fd.
Both servers are behind different firewalls, and each has a public IP
address that is configured for 1:1 NAT to the internal server. I can
telnet from the director to the client on port 9102 and connect OK, and
the client can telnet to the storage daemon on the other server on port
9103 and connect OK. So, I think the network path is working.
What appears to happen is that we start the backup job, and it connects
and begins transferring and then almost immediately stops and then times
out. It transfers like 800 bytes and seems to just sit there.
Are you sure the Password= line is the same in both bacula-dir.conf and
the client's bacula-fd.conf?
