Tip 1: Please look at the Support page on our web site.  Tip 2: You will find 
that it is much better to address these problems to the bacula-users list. 
Tip 3: All these questions are answered in the manual

Tip 4: see below

explain it to me? The director naming I can't get, where do you get the 
director name, is it something that you make up, can I say that my dir is 
janco, do I have to put a "-dir" as post fix the dir specified in the fd.conf 
and sd.conf is it the same dir as specified in the dir.conf and how do they 
encrypt the password it the .conf files.

It can be anything, but should be unique amoung *all* your daemons. You are 
not required to add a -dir, but if you do not, support will be *very* 
difficult as no one but you will be able to read the error messages and 
understand what daemon is sending them.

There are several "pictures" of how the names and passwords must match up.

Tip5: do the exercises in the Tutorial chapter. This will become much more 
obvious.

Tip6: This is vacation time in Europe, so response may be rather meager until 
the end of August.

Please I need your help???"
