Hi every:
After install Bacula I need to configure bacula-dir to test if it works or not. 
Reading the manual left by Mathieu [1] I have a lot of questions. In the 
section: " Server (Director) Configuration (bacula-dir.conf)" I see:

###################   DEFINE DIRECTOR   #############################
Director                     
{                                     
 Name = backup-dir                               #or whatever name you want
 Description = "Bacula Director - $MY_LOCATION"  # "Bacula Director - Main 
Office"
 DIRport = 9101                       
 QueryFile = "/etc/bacula/query.sql"
 WorkingDirectory = "/var/bacula"
 PidDirectory = "/var/run"
 Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
 FDConnectTimeout = 1min
 SDConnectTimeout = 1min
 Password = "$CONSOLE_PASSWORD"                  # "gsdfgfdsg44"
 Messages = Daemon
}

The Password parameter is generated automatically? Because I have a large and 
strong password here that I never wrote before I think.

Now in this other section:

###################   DEFINE CLIENTS   ##############################

Client {
  Name = $SOME_IMPORTANT_CLIENT-fd              # accountant-fd
  Address = $FQDN_OR_IP                         # accountant.mydomain.local
  FDPort = 9102
  Catalog = GiantCatalog
  Password = "$CLIENT_ACCESS_PASSWORD"          # "strong_password"
  File Retention = 6 days
  Job Retention = 6 days
  AutoPrune = yes
  Maximum Concurrent Jobs = 2
}

I have only two doubts: In Address parameter I can write the IP address and not 
the DNS name? The Password Parameter is the administrator account in the 
workstation in wich I have Bacula Client installed, no?

This are for now
Cheers, thanks in advance and waiting for answers
