Something connects to the director. IIRC, bacula had some problems
displaying IP addresses, somehow IPv4 and IPv6 display were mixed up or
something...
You could try and use ethereal or tcpdump to watch the connections to
the director and see their source IP.
Even if you can't identify the system responsible with the IP you could
feed it to nmap and have that do a OS guess, or check your firewall, or
whatever is necessary... I'd assume that the backup server got a new IP
address and something in your network remembers that IP to belong to
something different.
I had something similar with a nagios check with a mistyped password.
Gave lots of mail - from bacula, and from the monitoring system. :-)
