Hi,

Please can anyone tell me how to reset or get the director password. I need
it for adding new clients and I am not sure what the password is.

This password is set in the bacula-dir.conf file on the director.

No, it is not encrypted, copy it as-is, it will work.
Generally it is created during setup via the /dev/rand device . Maybe its
for this reason that it seams encrypted to you.

No need to decode you just copy that cryptic code to the client
bacula-fs or enter it in the windows setup.

Reset it on the director, then update all your clients with the new
password. Might be a pain if you have a lot of clients....
