No.  In fact, the master server must be the highest version, the media
servers must be next, and then the clients at the lowest version.
Ideally, of course, all are at the same version...

Do the mater server first, then the media servers (if you have any), and
then finally the clients as you get to them.  A 4.5 client certainly
works fine with a 5.x master.  I expect that Veritas doesn't support a
4.5 client on a 6.0 master, but that doesn't mean it won't work.
