Hi Ana

Thank you for this.  However, initialy the opposite seems to have been the 
case. The storage daemons at 5.0.x were working fine, while the one at 5.2.13 
was not. However, changing the client has fixed this specific client.

While looking into this, and trying to find out how to install 5.2.x RPM's 
onto my Fedora 21 file and print server I found references to Bareos.  This 
is something I was totally unaware of.

I have followed the instructions to install the bareos repo and have installed 
the bareos-client.  Having turned 'compatibilty = yes' on I can now 
successfully back up this server.

While I'm not sure how I should proceed long term, it does seem to have solved 
this problem.  What I don't understand is why *very* old boxes running Fedora 
9 and 2.4.x clients back up and work fine, while newer Fedora 21 / 5.0.x 
clients fail.
