![]() Or maybe you’re just looking for yet another thing for your Raspberry Pi to do. Perhaps you’re uncomfortable with that, even if they’ve promised that they won’t peek at it. One thing they all have in common is that a copy of your stuff is on someone else’s system. You have Microsoft’s OneDrive, Google Drive, DropBox, and SpiderOak just to name a few. There are plenty of cloud sync solutions out there. You can keep Resilio Sync up to date again… until the next time their key expires… sometime next December. You can install the new key in exactly the same way you installed it originally. Next, you’ll need to install an up-to-date signing key before apt will be happy again. In my case, it was “05CD43032484414B”, so the command to clear it out is: sudo apt-key del 05CD43032484414B Copy down the key signature from the error message, and substitute it in the following comment. You’ll still be able to update Resilio Sync with a new key, which we’ll install in a moment, but unless you clear out the old one, you can expect to keep seeing the error.įortunately this is easy to do. That’s the seemingly random string of letters and numbers in the error message. You’ll want to remove the old signing key because apt-get is going to go on complaining about it forever if you don’t. You’ll first notice it when you go to do an apt-get update, and receive an error that says something like “EXPKEYSIG 05CD43032484414B Resilio, Inc.”. Reading the instructions is one thing, but watching it done demystifies the whole process.Īpparently, the Resilio signing keys have a habit of expiring every December. If you have a Pluralsight subscription, please consider watching it. Self-Promotion: I have recorded this series as a screencast for Pluralsight: ![]() Please refer to the series Introduction for a list of all the different posts in the series. If you’ve started from something other than a non-NOOBS Raspbian image, then you’ll probably need to adjust for that. If you are just trying to add one thing to an existing system that was not built following this series, then I cannot promise that these instructions will work for you, although they probably will. I’ll try Syncthing when I get a chance, but this is easier for now.Note: This post is part of a series. In return, I give them an encrypted folder on my machine so we both get off-site backup (without exposing our data to each other).Īnyway, sorry for the sales pitch, but I just don’t feel like it got a fair representation on the podcast. It uses a neat “Encrypted folder” feature where the remote data remains encrypted at rest (so my parents can’t see it). I have a Raspberry Pi with a big USB hard drive at my parents’ house for off-site backup. Leo will be happy to know that it runs on Linux and Mac too. ![]() The UI is not perfect, but gets the job done. Open source would be preferred, but I’ll still take it. Of course we have to trust that they’re doing what they’re saying, but since getting caught doing funny business would be the end of their business, I have no reason to doubt their intentions. You can sync arbitrary folders too, not just the sync folder. ![]() Since it’s peer to peer, the only storage limit is the size of your hard drive. Transfers are really fast and I believe it is smart about differential syncing. Only the clients have the keys and nothing is stored on their servers. Data transfer is peer to peer (unless a relay server is needed because of NAT). Sure it’s proprietary and they don’t give us all the technical details, but the brief reads pretty clearly and as long as they’re not outright lying to us, it seems securely designed. I have been using it for years (free version) and was really looking forward to Steve’s promised review of their security and privacy brief here. I still can’t get over the 100 clients and multiple networks allowed on the free tier !! It’s brilliant !! Typically i just SSH in to do any maintenance etc but you get the idea.Įdit: i sound like a sales rep hehe, but just a satisfied customer. I’ve also installed No Machine on the Linux servers (PCs) i have and i can RDP into them from my rMBP via ZeroTier even if i use a VPN whilst on my local cafe’s WiFi. You can also invite someone to join your private network for whatever reason, authorise them, and then when they have finished you uncheck the box and they no longer have access. Then you “join” your clients through the client software on Mac, Linux, Windows, iOS, Android etc etc and authorise them through the web interface. Feel free to ping me if you have any questions as i’ve been using it now for about 8 months and basically you set up your network public or private (i chose private for probably obvious reasons) through their web interface. ![]()
