Title: Super-duper Easy Backup and Encryption Bounty (REDIRECTED)
Post by: kiba on December 30, 2010, 04:39:39 AM
I am too lazy to backup and type in the password, upload to various services, yadyadaydaydayda.

Make me a backup utility that does this automatically(and prompt me a password so I don't forget mine).

Pledges:

Kiba - 5 BTC.

Total pledges: 5 BTC.

The spec are:

1. Regular backups.
2. Encryption.
3. Upload to various services such as dropbox, gmail, and other places you store file.
4. Upload your password protected keys to other places such as your thumb drive, your other computer and so on.
5. Make it freakishly stupidlishly easy to do all the above.

As a bonus: provide warning of trojan horses and limitation of such security measure.

This bounty will expire 365 days later.

EDIT: My pledge are redirected toward tahoe-lafs.

I'm assuming this is only on Windows?

Here is the one I use :


Code:
#!/bin/bash

name=grondilu
sftp_address=grondilu@XXXXXXXX.XXX
email_address=grondilu@YYYYY.YYY

wallet=someobfuscatedfilename
private=$HOME/Private

bitcoind backupwallet $private/$wallet

cd $private
gpg -e -r $name $wallet

sftp $sftp_address <<< "put $wallet.gpg"
obexftp -b "XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX" -c /Data/backups -p "$wallet.gpg"
mutt $email_address -s backup -a $wallet.gpg

rm $wallet{,.gpg}

I use the Private virtual encrypted directory  made with ecryptfs.

The obexftp line is to transfer to my N900 via bluetooth.

Well, I decided to dedicate my bounty somewhere long time ago when I realize that there is already a solution.
