I'll start sending you some punctuation and line feeds vie mail :-)

What errors exactly do you get when you start the DIR from the shell, 
like in '/sbin/bacula-dir -c /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf -f'? (Change 
the paths to fit your installation!)

That's just it, even starting bacula from the shell I never got any errors.
Even using this './bacula start -d 50' I only received this error which I
assume is normal as I still get it now with bacula running fine 'Starting
the Bacula Director daemon
bacula-dir: dird.c:152 Debug level = 1
09-Feb 19:55 bacula-dir: ERROR TERMINATION at parse_conf.c:847
Config error: expected resource name, got: BACFDCFG
            : line 16, col 8 of file bacula
BACFDCFG=/etc/bacula'

Which version of Bacula?

As it says in original message I just upgraded to ver 2.01

What does the configuration file look like?

Not sure what the configuration file looked like but it was obviously the
culprit. I Uninstalled everything and the reinstalled it and after making
the changes necessary to the config files everything worked, if I tried to
use my original dir conf it would stop working again. I never found anything
visibly wrong with my file and ended up copying and pasting all the info in
the new conf file so they looked identical and the new one works fine but
the old one doesn't??? At any rate it is working now but thought I would
reply in case anyone else ever runs up against this, whatever happened,
happened during a restore on a remote computer.

After you supply that information I'm sure we can help.
