Backup files from a remote computer using Onionshare

1) Run connecttoserver.exe as admin on your PC

2) Run clientstart.exe as admin on the remote PC:

C:\obackup\clientstart.exe --onion http://xdgjlseizutrr65pvast2g26mdxdgjlseizutrr65pvast2g26mduid.onion --folder c:\uploadstuff --regex .* --depth 10 --logfile c:\logfiletext.txt --exitkeys ctrl+x+e --sleepfile 0.1 --sleeprotation 0.1

Explanation:

--onion http://xdgjlseizutrr65pvast2g26mdxdgjlseizutrr65pvast2g26mduid.onion

The server address is generated when you lunch connecttoserver.exe for the first time, it will never change, unless you delete untying-copartner-moonstone.json

--folder c:\uploadstuff

The folder you want to back up

--regex .*

Regex file filter

--depth 10

Max depth of subdirectories

--logfile c:\logfiletext.txt

Log file for Exceptions

--exitkeys ctrl+x+e

Shortcut to kill clientstart.exe since it is headless

--sleepfile 0.1

Sleep time between each file

--sleeprotation 0.1

Sleep time before next folder scan

File hashes are saved in C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\backuplogtmp\backuplogtmp\Cache\backuplog.tmo, and scanned every rotation, if the file has been updated, it will be automatically uploaded
