The idea behind this is pretty simple and it was developed to solve the following scenario:<p>* I have a RPi with an encrypted drive attached (which is mounted on boot) where all my backups are synced (and from there rsynced to a remote location).<p>* If both RPi & HDD are stolen then they will have access to the data as the password is hardcoded.<p>* To solve this, GPG encrypt the password and upload it. Use the script to pass it as a subcommand to the mount command. A simple example with mysqldump would be:<p><pre><code> mysqldump -ubackup -p$(rpass.sh "MySQL") > /tmp/backup.sql
</code></pre>
* If the device is stolen, disable the GPG password on the website and your data is safe.<p>I have a few things on the roadmap but wanted to get a feel if this is something people would use before spending more time on it (it's currently only doing what I initially planned for it to do).<p>URL: <a href="https://www.remotepassword.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.remotepassword.com/</a>
