Hi!

We are inte transition from amanda 2.4.2 to 2.5.2. We seem to have a working build and configuration. We've also switched from Solaris 9 to 10, and newer
hardware.

However, with 2.5.2 encryption is no longer an option, when using Kerberos 5 authentication. The backup server seems to have problems with the backup of nearly 200 filesystems on 80 hosts.

Previously we only encrypted 100 filesystems (and often these were the smaller
ones).

Anyone with a configuration resembling ours?
