About rclone
Rclone is a command-line program to manage files on remote storage. It is a feature-rich alternative to cloud vendors' web storage interfaces. Over 70 cloud storage products support rclone including S3 object stores, business & consumer file storage services, as well as standard transfer protocols. Rclone has powerful cloud equivalents to the unix commands rsync, cp, mv, mount, ls, ncdu, tree, rm, and cat. It is used at the command line, in scripts or via its API.
Rclone mounts any local, cloud or virtual filesystem as a disk on Windows, macOS, linux and FreeBSD, and also serves these over SFTP, HTTP, WebDAV, FTP and DLNA.
Rclone helps you:
Backup (and encrypt) files to cloud storage
Restore (and decrypt) files from cloud storage
Mirror cloud data to other cloud services or locally
Migrate data to the cloud, or between cloud storage vendors
Mount multiple, encrypted, cached or diverse cloud storage as a disk
Union file systems together to present multiple local and/or cloud file systems as one
...
rclone Configuration
Rclone does require some configuration for any “transfer partner” this is a long process, but once setup it is useful to use over and again. Examples will be for configuring transfers to/from MedicineBow using authentication with an ssh-key:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
dylan@fireball:~$ rclone config
2024/07/10 14:32:44 NOTICE: Config file "/home/dylan/.config/rclone/rclone.conf" not found - using defaults
No remotes found - make a new one
n) New remote
s) Set configuration password
q) Quit config
n/s/q> n
name> medbow |
You will then be given choices to make to continue configuring the ‘medbow’ remote configuration, in our case we will pick the number ‘27’ SSH/SFTP Connection
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
Storage> 27
** See help for sftp backend at: https://rclone.org/sftp/ **
SSH host to connect to
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
Choose a number from below, or type in your own value
1 / Connect to example.com
\ "example.com"
host> medicinebow.arcc.uwyo.edu
SSH username, leave blank for current username, dylan
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
user> dperkin6
SSH port, leave blank to use default (22)
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
port> |
Then you will have to give more login info, in this case we will accept defaults by hitting ‘enter/return’ to continue until we get to the ‘key_file’ option and enter the location of the ssh key file:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
SSH password, leave blank to use ssh-agent.
y) Yes type in my own password
g) Generate random password
n) No leave this optional password blank (default)
y/g/n>
Raw PEM-encoded private key, If specified, will override key_file parameter.
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
key_pem>
Path to PEM-encoded private key file, leave blank or set key-use-agent to use ssh-agent.
Leading `~` will be expanded in the file name as will environment variables such as `${RCLONE_CONFIG_DIR}`.
Enter a string value. Press Enter for the default ("").
key_file> /home/dylan/.ssh/id_rsa |
The next options will be relating to passwords and certificates. For MedicineBow, none of this applies so we keep hitting enter until we get to the cipher where we will enter '1' for false. The final two steps are entering an advanced configuration and then saving before exiting the configuration setup.

The passphrase to decrypt the PEM-encoded private key file.
Only PEM encrypted key files (old OpenSSH format) are supported. Encrypted keys
in the new OpenSSH format can't be used.
y) Yes type in my own password
g) Generate random password
n) No leave this optional password blank (default)
y/g/n>
Choose a number from below, or type in your own value
1 / Use default Cipher list.
\ "false"
2 / Enables the use of the aes128-cbc cipher and diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256, diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1 key exchange.
\ "true"
use_insecure_cipher> 1
Disable the execution of SSH commands to determine if remote file hashing is available.
Leave blank or set to false to enable hashing (recommended), set to true to disable hashing.
Enter a boolean value (true or false). Press Enter for the default ("false").
disable_hashcheck>
Edit advanced config? (y/n)
y) Yes
n) No (default)
y/n> n
