did you do: rc-update add bacula default
This will auto start bacula after a reboot. If you want it to start now just type: /etc/init.d/bacula start To see if it is started you can do: /etc/init.d/bacula status or better yet ps -ef | grep bacula What version of bacula are you running? If you want I can email you an ebuild I edited for the latest version.
