Hello all I am using bacula to backup the contents of my server onto a tape and using data encyrption.
Previously, the encryption was working fine and you wouldnt be able to restore files from the tape without the decryption keys. However, I stopped encrypting the tapes for a while whilst doing some testing and now when encrypting the data (although the backup says 'Storage Encryption: yes' in the log), I can restore the files from the tape even though i delete the keypair and master key from where they should be located on the server. Any ideas what I may be doing wrong or forgotten to do??? Further Information:- Bacula version:-Bacula 2.4.4 In the bacula-fd.conf files I have the following lines for data encryption:- #added for data encryption PKI Signatures = Yes PKI Encryption = Yes PKI Keypair ="/home/private/ppkey.pem" #Public and private key PKI Master Key ="/home/private/master.cert" #Only public key What I found:- If you comment out the above lines in the config file, restart bacula, delete the keys from the location specified above and restore "encrypted" tape (backed up when encryption was enabled) everything gets restored (when it shouldnt). If I have the above lines uncommented and delete the keys from the location specified above then the file daemon wont obviously start.Delete/move the keys after restarting bacula files get restored! Previously however, when I changed the keys/deleted the keys and tried to restore from an encrypted tape all was working fine i.e. I would get a error complaining about the decryption keys and wouldnt be able to restore the contents of the tape. So I am confused as to what is going on. In the log it does say 'Storage Encryption: yes' for the backup job that I am trying to restore... HELP??? Any advice will be v much appreciated! -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Bacula-Encryption-Not-working-as-it-should-be-----tp25712608p25712608.html Sent from the Bacula - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
