Peter,

You can't use any other ASM with the encryption ASM in your directive.
You can either compress it (its client side software compression by the
way) or encrypt it but not both. It's in the Networker Multiplatform
Administrators Guide if you want to reference it.



Thanks,

Dana

Subject: File encryption using 7.4.1

Hello again list!

I'm trying to get encryption to work with 7.4.1 but am hitting a 
stumbling block.  I have the following directive set for my test system:

<< / >>
    +compressasm: .
    +aes: *

I believe this is what the Administration guide was telling me to do in 
order to activate AES.

The save works fine, but when I restore, it doesn't ask me for a 
password, it just blindly restores the file.  It says nothing about it 
encrypting or decrypting from the networker user interface.

Is my directive wrong?  Is it doing it transparently and just not 
telling me?  I'm restoring to the same machine I saved from, and I 
wonder if it is using the password I entered into the interface back 
when I setup encryption in the first place?

Any guidance would be very appreciated!

Pete
