Sorry, Director is running 2.4.4 on CentOS 5.3. Storage Daemon is running
3.0.2 on a different CentOS 5.3 machine. Director and Storage are fine
together, but the 2.4.4 director cannot access the 3.0.2 fd (running on the
sd machine). This is all with sqlite.

Do you think upgrading the director is a better solution over the long-term
since the 3.0 director can talk to 2.4 clients?

Of note, I am having dependency problems while trying to upgrade director
from 2.4 to 3.0. Different issue I guess. I will pose that question in a new
thread based on your advice here.

Thanks!

You did not say what OS your 3.0 client was on. Also a 3.0 director
can talk to a 2.4.X client. At home I have this setup.
