I want to increase the safety (or do I mean security?, It's the same word in Swedish so I often misuse them.) around my backups, so I have decided to move the physical storage of my backups to my garden shed so it will survive a fire. I want to send my backups there by using my wlan and have an old "thin client" type of disk- and fanless computer to store the backups on usb connected harddrives.
I've been looking on FreeNAS (www.freenas.org) but it require to much ram to suit my machine. So, I decided to use Puppy or a derivative.
BUT there are so many to choose from!
My requirements are:
- 1. Installable on an USB-stick. (I think all puppies are?)
2. Minimum of diskwrites (since I want it to run from usb-stick)
3. Password protected user (the user may be root)
4. sFTP or FTP server
5. Wlan support with WPA encryption
6. Data file encryption or data disk encryption (in case of theft)
Thank you for any suggestions!
