If you build from the current sources available from www.bacula.org, you
can do this on any platform that supports OpenSSL. 

What I said was that the precompiled RPMs distributed with RH/SuSE
probably are older than the Bacula release that provided this function.
Those are probably still at 1.36 or 1.38.4 or so. You need current code
to get that function.
