• Ask HN: Best modern file transfer/synchronization protocol?

  Seconding rsync and syncthing. The server could expose an smb or nfs share, the client could mount it, and then sync to that mount. Rsync over ssh also works, if you do not want to run smb/nfs. This is also a cool tool https://rclone.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Which synchronization tool are you using together with the pCloud Crypto Folder?

  Rclone provides a special pCloud config option, which makes the setup straight forward. Rclone can encrypt the data it uploads with its own encryption but not with the pCloud encryption. Therefore it can only upload data to the unencrypted pCloud folders, not to the Crypto Folder. Source: 5 months ago

• Not openSUSE specific but what's the best backup utility?

  I'm using rsnapshot. It's based on rsync. It's fully automated and I make daily and monthly backups backup to my NAS. The biggest benefit of rsnapshot is that it uses hardlinks. So only changed files are backed up. It doesn't have a GUI though, you have to set a configuration file. Source: 11 months ago
