Well, that's just a path name and as such doesn't mean there are any
references to cygwin libraries in the FD executable.

Why this mention of cygwin? Is the reason why the back-up fails that
bacula-fd.exe contains fracments of cygwin code? Please inform.
I doubt that. In fact I do use the windows FD 1.38.4 on several clients
and none of them ever had any cygwin stuff installed, and I'm backing up
these machines for much more than a year now.
What shall I do to overcome this problem so that I get a chance to
back-up my
vital data on my windows platforms.
I'd assume a configuration problem unless I see reasons to assume a bug.
You should make sure that the windows machines can contact the SD as
this is what's not working.
Windows' firewall settings and any firewall in between the FD and SD
might be involved here, and of course the whole name resolution stuff.
You can try with telnet, from a windows shell, to contact the SD port at
the address you configured in the storage section of the bacula-dir.conf
file. If this doesn't work you should review your name resolution setup
and your firewalls.
The windows box in question is my windows test machine and it has no firewall
active. But you are probably right that my "name resolution setup" in incorrect,
so I'll have to find out how to set that up correctly (sigh).
