Actually, I didn't insert the username and password. When I did the
initial install of the Bacula packages a dialog came up asking for that
information. Since I didn't enter the values directly into the file I'm
assuming that whatever put up that dialog did. It's possible that I
clicked right through the question asking for the DB name.

I'd like to take advantage of this ongoing conversation to say that,
even though there have been a couple minor rocks in the road, I was
really happy to see the Bacula packages in the Ubuntu repository, and
that they were the current versions. I have been using Bacula for a few
years and it was nice to be able to just click on the packages and port
over my configuration.
