Isolating the catalog from an encrypted archive:

/dar -zzstd -N -B lennz-darrc -R /proc/cygdrive -C=20
/proc/cygdrive/F/darback/lennz-1-C-0 -A=20
/proc/cygdrive/F/darback/lennz-1-F-0/
Archive lennz-1-F-0 requires a password:

lennz-darrc contains the line:
*-K aes:secret*

The previous steps dar -c, dar -t, and dar -d run with a similar command=
=20
line, but are able to used the needed information from lennz-darrc.
