Re: Encrypted backups on FreeBSD ?

I've been through this but still don't have it working. On the
particular disk entry (backing up with gtar) encryption doesn't run
during amdump. amcheck reports the error:
WARNING: testhost:/disk1/user/srl does not support server data encryption

I'm having some strange issues as well, trying to do encrypted backups on
FreeBSD. Let me ask this:
1. Is encrypted storage of backups a production feature?
I got this working without too much of a problem.
1. Create a key file and a passphrase as described in 'man amcrypt',
store them in the locations indicated.
2. Use a config such as the following to perform the actual encryption:
define dumptype whatever {
# [... other settings ...]
encrypt server
server_encrypt "/usr/sbin/amcrypt"
}
