Crashplan home login5/18/2023 I may do that just so I have SOMETHING going, but I’m also looking at building him a FreeNAS or unRAID box like mine (out of spare hardware I have sitting around) or using SyncThing to keep my local backup synchronized with his machine.ĭevice discovery is achieved via publicly-accessible discovery servers hosted by the project developers Since I know my unRAID box will be up almost 100% of the time, Duplicati works great for that - but even setting up my father’s Windows 10 desktop to Minio or an SFTP server gets a bit sketchy because I don’t know when he’s going to be online, and at the moment Duplicati doesn’t handle intermittent destination availability well (it just skips the backup and waits to try again at the next scheduled time). My secondary “need” is to get my content (not including their backups) somewhere offsite - such as at my father’s. My primary “need” is to get all the people I used to support with CrashPlan switched to something else (such as Duplicati) getting THEM set up with offsite backups. Ut doesn’t fulfill the ‘I want MY backups to be located remotely’ I’m really hoping with fingers crossed that duplicati will consider some kind of ethernet-link-checking as I only want my laptops to backup via LAN cable, never on Wi-Fi (this was one of the great options on CP). This is all pretty new to me, but I also just got a trial of Wasabi (S3 compatible) to host a secondary remote backup.Īfter I get all the initial backups seeded locally this server will live at a remote location. The only trick is that you have to enable the ‘’’–s3-ext-forcepathstyle=true)’’’ option AND you have to connect to the Minio web interface to create the buckets (this was not clear to me … it’s not possible to create buckets from the Freenas web interface. Freenas 11 includes minio and it was almost trivial to set up a bucket and connect to it through duplicati. I just switched to Freenas 11 with zfs on one of my two servers that was running Ubuntu with an ext4/mdadm raid and CrashPlan. Fortunately my contract does not expire until March so I have some time left. I’m also a CrashPlan (CP) Home orphan with friend-to-friend backups. Oh, and my comment about “not naming names” earlier might need to be adjust now that we’ve got a final date on Google Drive being retired (though to be fair I haven’t actually looked at Google Backup & Sync). As far as ports I try to never use the default ones where possible, though I do know security through obscurity isn’t particularly useful so thanks for the separate account reminder. The install errored due to missing dependencies, but I ran sudo apt-get -f install to fix that.ĭuplicati would start up, but when trying to connect to B2 I would get certificate errors and followed the a…Īnd I’ve not heard of or winscp server (I’ve only seen the client) before so I’ll check that out too. I installed using Duplicati by by downloading the DEB file (I’m using Raspbian) and running I’m trying to get Duplicati working on a Raspberry Pi and so far I can’t seem to get it to work. Help with installing on Raspberry Pi Support Oh, dear - I seem to have overlapped a bit with this topic where the promising sounding Minio is mentioned (along with the necessary -s3-ext-forcepathstyle=true)! Note that I’m particularly interested in utlities that don’t require server level hardware or configs - half of this monster is going to be running on plain old Windows 10.
