This works on Linux and Windows.

Windows

example

In this example a single file (Passwords.txt) and recursively all files in Q:\Work\Presentations\2017 are encrypted. The resulting encrypted data are stored on DataServer and the encryption keys are stored on a secure USB-stick.

LXRbackup.cmd -n 256 -c 0 ^
   -pX \\DataServer\Chunks\LXR ^
   -pD S:\Secure\meta ^
   -f C:\Users\me\Passwords.txt ^
   -dr Q:\Work\Presentations\2017

Linux

example

Following the above example of encrypting data, in this example we reconstruct the original files from the encrypted data on DataServer. The encryption keys are read from a secured USB-stick. All files with a dot (“.”) in their names are selected.

./LXRrestore.sh -o /tmp/DataFromWindows \
   -pX /automount/DataServer/Chunks/LXR \
   -d /automount/SecureStick/Secure/meta/lxr_WIN01_me_20170804132201_dbfp.xml \
   -d /automount/SecureStick/Secure/meta/lxr_WIN01_me_20170804132201_dbkey.xml \
   -s "."
