I just installed BE 12.5 onto a Win2k3 R2 (32bit) srv. I am running just backup-to-disk backups. Let's say I make a backup, then ship the backup file(s) to an offsite location (over WAN), then for whatever reason my backup server dies (fire/water/broke etc).

1) If I have a replacement server to reinstall BE 12.5, and assuming I can retrieve the backup files from my offsite location, how do I import the backup files and restore them?

2) If I choose to encrypt my backup files, can I restore my backup files on the new server and at what point does BE request the passphrase for the encryption key?

thanks!
