I have a client in the field that hat crashed. I need to replace it with new one. In my lab I install a new client and need most of the configuration files from the old one. I have no problem if the backup is not encrypted, but how do I do if the backup is encrypted? Must I install bacula-fd on the client and the keys to get the backup encrypted or can I do it in other way? - -- Regards Jon Ingason -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHZ8uVWn396VE8BCsRAspWAJ4yhpgykJDBWudwhXAg+IFD0VeLJQCeLM68 nT1iNRdDuPQ5WkvTOp15jOQ= =JwfF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
