BIT only backup files/folders as they are. If it read them decrypted it will backup them decrypted. If it read them encrypted it will backup the encrypted. But nothing stops you to have an encrypted file system on your NAS server.
** Changed in: backintime Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- Add encryption https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/482170 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Back In Time Team, which is a direct subscriber. Status in Back In Time: New Bug description: Wish List: Having installed Ubuntu 9.10 from the Live CD, I noticed it now includes the option to encrypt the 'home' and 'swap' folders; a really good idea for laptops. Using the encrypt option, I'm now using BiT to backup my encrypted 'home' onto a NAS storage device in an unencrypted state; this bothers me greatly. If I'm encrypting my 'home' folder on my laptop (for good reasons) the the resulting copy of it on my NAS device should also be encrypted. I need BiT to include an option to encrypt the backup data.
