I've read the various guides about this topic and searched around the forum but I'm not sure the information I found are reliable with the new bitcoind client. So, I encrypt my wallet, store a backup copy somewhere else, but I'm not sure what to do when restoring it. Should I still delete wallet.dat, blkindex.dat and blk0001.dat, restore wallet.dat and let the client perform the whole block scan again? Does the program still know that the wallet is encrypted? Or should I encrypt the new wallet.dat with the same passphrase again before restoring the old one? Thank you in advance.
