Package: zescrow-client (1.7-0ubuntu1)

back up eCryptfs Encrypted Home or Encrypted Private Configuration

zescrow-client provides the zescrow (formerly ecryptfs-escrow-private) utility, which can be used to upload a backup of an eCryptfs Encrypted Home or eCryptfs Encrypted Private configuration to a zEscrow compatible server.

zEscrow.gazzang.com is one such compatible server, an implementation of the AGPL free software available at https://launchpad.net/zEscrow.

zEscrow will: 

 - prompt for your chosen zEscrow server
 - retrieve the public GPG key of that zEscrow server
 - prompt for your login passphrase
 - use your login passphrase to decrypt your mount passphrase
 - create a tar archive of your ~/.ecryptfs directory and decrypted
   mount passphrase
 - gpg encrypt that archive the your zEscrow server's public key
 - upload your encrypted archive to your zEscrow server
 - display a URL and offer to launch a browser, where you must go
   to associate a Google account and email address with your backup
