The default location is C:\ProgramData\Bacula\bacula-fd.conf I couldn't find where to put it. I think my mistake was I tried to manually edit and place the conf file, as I had done in XP. In the Vista Installation, if you go to the start menu, then to:
Bacula> Configuration> Edit Client Configuration then edit the file in that manner, it automatically places it in the correct location. I had to stop and restart the service, and all was well.
