decrypt file configuration

I would like to know how you found that out? I too was running into the same issue. I believe the encryption key is some hash of the encrypted password that you present during the backup.

Keep us posted on what you find, TAC told me there was no way to extract.

From what I have found that the file is encrypted with AES128

Hi

confirm now way to encrypt locally out of the scratch. Keep in mind that if that would be possible your backup which is encrypted is nonsens if somebody would get you backup file. This is the reason YOU CAN'T ENCRYPT. Of course probably there is a way but of course not comunicated by TAC and of course not a standard way.

At least I have to say "it works as designed" :)

hope this helps

have fun

FWIW

This is why pgp/openssl comes in handy. You can always execute backup and then encrypted the cfg file for additional security using your own define encryption method. This also allow for you to exch the file with other security associates  with out concern for risk and modifications.

This also allows you to remove the encryption to review a backup file B4 restoral of if you need to diff various backup from current cfg to previous past.

Using the unknown encryption method vrs a known method and with your own key/passphrase.... the latter is more acceptable imho.
