+ | ====== Offsite Backup for Technical Mac Users ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | OpenDocMan Off-Site Storage (ODM OSS) gives you full control over your remote files using the sophisticated Unix functionality of your OSX system. A wide range of access methods are available. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Remember: we are here to support you with any use you may make of your ODM OSS filesystem, and we encourage you to contact us as often as you like with questions. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Drag and Drop Access with the Finder ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The fastest and simplest way to access your offsite filesystem is to simply choose " | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | You will be asked for your username and password and then presented with a normal Finder window representing your offsite filesystem. You can use this just like any other Folder in the Finder, dragging and dropping and organizing just like any other Folder. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You may also connect with an ftp: URL if you choose to, however we do not recommend it as the connection will not be encrypted. | ||

+ | ===== Powerful, Efficient Scheduled Backups with rsync ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Like most modern Unix distributions, | ||
+ | |||
+ | With no additional software or configuration needed, your Mac OSX system is ready to immediately begin powerful, bandwidth-efficient backups on whatever schedule you choose. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Your data transfer over rsync is encrypted with SSH. Our systems also support rdiff-backup, | ||

+ | ===== Efficient Remote Backup of Encrypted Disk Images ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Many OSX users create encrypted disk images with the OSX Disk Utility. These encrypted filesystems, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Uploading a large, multi-gigabyte encrypted disk image on a regular (daily) basis would be impractical. Luckily, the internal structure of an encrypted OSX Disk Image allows it to be efficiently transferred with the rsync tool. This means that the long, initial upload of the file need only occur once. All subsequent backups will occur with only the changes in your local disk image being sent, even though the disk image is encrypted. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This means that with no additional software or configuration, | ||

+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Local Filesystem Mount with sshFS for OSX ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | sshFS is now available for OSX! This means that your ODM OSS filesystem can be mounted as a standard Unix filesystem over an encrypted transport. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This allows you to interact with your ODM OSS filesystem as if it were just one more local filesystem, and provides additional flexibility (and speed) over the standard server connection in the Finder. | ||
+ | |||
+ | (Complete HOWTO) | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | Standard FTP, SFTP and WebDAV access | ||
+ | |||
+ | ODM OSS filesystems are accessible over the standard FTP, SFTP and WebDAV protocols. Whether it is Fugu, Transmit, Goliath, or just plain old / | ||

+ | (Complete HOWTO) | ||

+ | |||
+ | Powerful Remote Command Execution and Pipelining | ||
+ | |||
+ | Need an md5 or sha256 checksum of one of your remote files ? Need to see a remote ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | All of these things are possible with your ODM OSS filesystem, as a wide array of standard unix administration and checksum commands can be run, remotely, over SSH. | ||
