Tsm 5.3 aix server and windows client

How do you set encryption on a windows client.

See the Windows client manual for details on using encryption (which
was introduced in TSM 4.1 - there's a good introduction in the TSM
4.1 Technical Guide redbook).
It's basically a matter of using ENCryptkey and Include.Encrypt, with
choice of encryption via ENCRYPTIONType.


In the option file   include.encrypt  w/directory is set

If set to encrypkey save,  will you be prompted at all for the
password?

Yes - the manual talks about that.

And where in the registry does it save the password.


This is undisclosed in the documentation.  Using the client Query
SYSTEMInfo command may reveal it.


Is there a Server option to be set for this client option to work?


It's client-controlled.
