Hello Bacula Community:

I have an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Server that has bacula 5.0.1 (dir, sd, and fd 
daemons) installed and
an Ubuntu 8.04 LTS host that has Version: 2.2.8-5ubuntu7 (fd daemon) 
installed, both from the REPOs.

I am having an issue getting the director on 10 to communicate to the fd
on 8 with this error using bconsole > status client:

Fatal error: Unable to authenticate with File daemon at 
"192.168.1.18:9102". Possible causes:
Passwords or names not the same or
Maximum Concurrent Jobs exceeded on the FD or
FD networking messed up (restart daemon).
Please see 
http://www.bacula.org/en/rel-manual/Bacula_Freque_Asked_Questi.html#SECTION003760000000000000000
 
for help.

I can telnet successfully from the 10 host to the 8 client on the 9102 
port and the password is definitely correct.

I did a trace using "/usr/sbin/bacula-fd -d100 -c 
/etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf" on the fd host and received this output when 
connecting from the director...

So my question is, is there any known issues using a 5.0.1 director
communicating with a lower versioned client?

Should I build the fd client from source?
Is there anything else I can check?

Thank you for your time.
