After some extra testing I am able to restore the encrypted backup if I restore to a different location (i.e. C:/restore). I have also successfully restored a single folder - Program Files (x86) - to it's original location. I only get problems when I try a full system restore to the original location. Then I get the cryptographic errors.
Martin, I haven't yet tried using portable backups. I will give it a go, but reading the docs I would rather have unencrypted backups than not be able to restore file attributes properly.

Looks like it might be bug. You could try doing a backup of a single small directory to see if that triggers it. If it does, then add portable=yes in the fileset options to see if that fixes it. Using portable=yes is not a good long-term solution, but it might narrow the problem down. __Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------ SOLARIS 10 is the OS for Data Centers - provides features such as DTrace, Predictive Self Healing and Award Winning ZFS.
