The script I’m building is coming up nicely. I have it checking for error codes, logging to a file and sending discord notifications. Next step is to finish up all the rclone copy’s and syncs I want to do and then trying to encrypt the data client side before uploading to cloud. I’ve seen mention of crypt but can’t find it in the official rclone docs (yet).
crypt is pretty simple honestly, go through prebuild but it's essentially just sitting on top of another remote. So I usually use the convention
{remotename}-crypt. It'll simply rename and encrypt anything and then pass it into the remove you already set up. A good way to test it is once you've copied some stuff over with the crypt set up try to mount it usingrclone mountand try to read some of your files, it should be fine.Don't forget to back up (securely, and obviously not on your encrypted share) your rclone config! if those keys are lost than so is your data.
I don’t need the whole rclone.conf file right? Just the authentication stuff for the underlying remote, the password for crypt and the salt for crypt. If I have that shouldn’t I be able to recreate the access and subsequently the decryption key to be used on some other machine?
I do, but it's more of a don't forget how it was made thing for me. I encrypted my file and put it on another cloud provider in case I lose it
