It's something you'll have to test. I personally don't test restores as
often as I should, however I have never had a problem in cases where
I've needed to restore. I would say once every number of months I go to
tape for a file -- there is always no problem. I shall try a restore
from a disk file (the catalog backup will do nicely) and we'll see where
I get. I'm guessing there will be no problem.

Are any of these folks doing anything weird? Encryption, TLS, any of
that? Mixing Windows with UNIX?
