for Fedora there is a "bacula2" compatibility package for running a Bacula
2.x client on Fedora systems connecting to RHEL/CentOS 5 servers; but it's
pretty unmantained and uses systemd for running, so even if rebuilding for
CentOS you would need some SysV init script, etc. The last Bacula 2.x
release is from 2009.
Don't know if you can, but I would suggest you configure your systems the
opposite way; i.e. upgrade your Bacula server installation to 5.x and
upgrade clients everywhere. You can use the following repository.
http://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/slaanesh/bacula/README.txt
There is no need to upgrade your RHEL/CentOS installation to run Bacula
5.x; as long the distribution is supported packages will be available in
the repository.
The repository contain packages that are the same that is in all Fedora
supported releases and are the basis for RHEL 7 bundled Bacula packages.
All the details are in the readme file.
