Well, all this being said then, is there anyone out there using any version
of Director & Storage Daemon on Mac OS X/Darwin? If so, how did you get it
ported and how is it working for you? Thanks.

This is a pretty common situation. For the sake of argument, if you were
to use a linux distribution such as Ubuntu Hardy, you'd be getting 2.2.8.
If you chose ubuntu Karmic (the latest) you'd get 2.4.4. Debian Lenny is
2.4 also.
Personally, I don't get that hung up on being at the very major release --
though I do try to be on the latest bug-fixed minor release. We needed to
have Win64 support with VSS, so I compiled debian packages for 3.0.2 and
our windows clients are all v3.0.3a. At some point we'll move to v5, but
I'm not that much of a rush. Hopefully Ubuntu/Debian will catch up with
our needs shortly (debian squeeze and ubuntu lucid both have v5) so
hopefully I'll be able to delegate the Bacula compilation back to the
package archive shortly and let them maintain testing, security fixes, etc.
It may mean we're a little late getting v5.1 or v6, but that's okay.
