\fBamaespipe\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBamaespipe\fR
requires
\fBaespipe\fR,
\fBuuencode\fR
and
\fBgpg\fR
to work\&. Aespipe is available from
: http://loop-aes.sourceforge.net
.PP
\fBamaespipe\fR
will search for the aespipe program in the following directories: /usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin\&.
.PP
\fBamaespipe\fR
is called by
\fBamcrypt\fR
for Amanda data encryption\&.
.PP
\fBamaespipe\fR
is based on aespipe\*(Aqs bzaespipe program\&. It calls aespipe to encrypt data using AES256 as the encryption and SHA256 as the hash function\&. GPG key should be stored in $AMANDA_HOME/\&.gnupg/am_key\&.gpg\&.
\fBamaespipe\fR
reads passphrase from file descriptor 3\&. During decryption,
\fBamaespipe\fR
autodects encryption type and hash function from the encrypted image\&.
