Hi,

I am in an heavy process of upgrading all my server. I am considering
moving from Amanda 2.4.2p2 (installed manually) to 2.5.1p3 (automatic
install on FreeBSD ports).

I am wondering if all the 2.4.2p2 configuration can be used, without
any modification, in 2.5.1p3: in a first step I would only change the
binaries. I would start using the new features only in a second step.

I also patched the 2.4.2p2 server a long time ago to add some level of 
obscurity in the amandapass file, entries look like:

//csimnt1/c     
0fcbcc6440b8a3d0b54a2966d3d7f5f963d71e4fd1afe5058c33c41a1a137937d302ac8e680bcb2cd0a58737378117dffe0a31b7ce2acf4242be1242264d5faec33a51c33b63a01c087e187cd0dcb1c858a1caa3753d2ce3d426a2889402155d1f36b866b9dc52edfe55e96335a6083646b233fdde37baba5b353e54db37fbb8494d

I am wondering if the new amanda server 2.5.1p3 if offering a way to
hide the contents of amandapass file.

Best regards,

Olivier
