Hmm...I dont like the fact that if my server and nas devices are all damaged in 
a fire (for example) then my off site backup copy (the encrypted tape) is 
useless to me! I dont see the point of having the offsite copy, if what is 
saved on the tape cant be restored! I'm no system admin, or have any experience 
in other backup software so dont know if this is the case with them as well or 
if this is just a down point for using bacula. 

My boss would like the tapes encrypted as there may be confidential data on the 
tapes so encrypting the tapes is a requirement for him. Is there any way that I 
could keep the bacula catalog unencrypted on the same tape? Is this possible to 
specify in the config files? Or is this being illogical as then anyone can 
restore the data if they have knowledge on bacula even if the other contents on 
the tape is encrypted...or is just sending a dump of the bacula catalog via 
email or to an off site location the only option if we encrypt the tape....

Many thanks in advance
