Hi folks,

Some quick questions about Bacula compression and encryption.

First off, is there any support for using bzip2 compression in Bacula?
Any plans for it?

Regarding encryption...  according to the docs, the FD performs the
encryption.  However, the director surely would need access to at
least the information about what files are stored so that it can
update the catalog.  Does that mean that only the contents of files
are encrypted, and that an attacker could gain access to the filenames
stored within the backup?
