Reading this I have a new doubt:Is it posible to restore the encrypted files as they are (encrypted) andto use later another tool to unencrypt them?
The short answer is "with work - yes". You would need to find a way to extract the symmetric encryption key from Bacula, and you'd need to modify Bacula to output the encrypted file contents
The actual encryption used is standard AES-128-CBC, without any special headers (others are supported, but there's currently no configuration toggle)
The symmetric key is stored per-file, in a seperate data stream (STREAM_ENCRYPTED_SESSION_DATA). It is stored as DER-encoded ASN.1, and the schema and re-usable code are available here: http://bacula.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/*checkout*/bacula/trunk/ bacula/src/lib/crypto.c?revision=5696
