| I personally use dar and gpg. Dar can be used to make incremental |
| 18 |
| backups which should partly solve your speed problem. Alternatively you |
| 19 |
| could use tar and gpg or cpio or whatever floats your boat. |
| 20 |
| |
| 21 |
| The alternative would be an encrypted filesystem and rdiff-backup or |
| 22 |
| rsync. Optionally you could safe the key to the filesystem on your home |
| 23 |
| partition or, if it doesn't need to be automated, in a gpg-encrypted |
| 24 |
| file. |
| 25 |
| |
| 26 |
| Let me know if you are interested in any of these options so I can |
| 27 |
| explain the details further (if you need support with that, that is). |

I also use dar, but I don't bother with gpg. I use the '-K:' option of dar, |
| 30 |
which provides passphrase protected blowfish protection. I suppose I could use |
| 31 |
gpg, as well, with AES256 or IDEA, but that would be overkill, I think, since I |
| 32 |
keep my backups on an external USB port drive. |
