All our clients have a bconsole.conf like that, each with their own password. I
can remove those bconsole.conf files from the clients, but then my clients
wouldn’t be able to do restores of their own files either. What I’m
specifically looking for is a way to configure things such that client X can
only access files/jobs for/from client X, but not those of client Y.
Oh, because I forgot in my original mail, I’m running Bacula 5.2.6 on Solaris
10 Sparc (147440-21).

I'm not sure how yours is set up, but on mine I had to go out of my way to make
it possible for clients to do any restores.
On the client, I had to create a bconsole.conf, such as:
Director {
Name = bacula-dir
DIRport = 9101
address = bacula-server
Password = "someBigUglyPasswordWitchMatchesTheOneOnTheBaculaServer"
}
If that file wasn't present, the client couldn't access the backups.
