[Box Backup] Exception: Cipher EVPFinalFailure (5/6)

[Paul MacKenzie]

Dear Ben,

Thanks for your reply.

It is a Freebsd machine with the 4.X stable tree. I built the port 
from the port tree and up until lately it has been working fine.

It is remotely possible for one second a server I was creating to 
replace this one having problems accessed the backup server with the 
other server's key on it. It would only have been for an instant but 
I figure this may be the reason for the problem (as I have no other 
possible explanation). I just need to figure out how to fix it as I 
need to restore some files :)

Thanks again for your help,

Paul
