Hi all,
I'm a user and a fan of S3QL :)

I want to know if there's any chance to have S3QL working on Windows.
I've googled without success...

If S3QL could not run under Windows os, do you know a valid Windows alternative to S3QL?

Thanks

If you can find a FUSE implementation for Windows, getting S3QL to work
might be possible. But I'm not aware of any work in that area.

Well, there's always the commercial stuff like JungleDrive etc.

I have a dream... :)
- Windows mobile client (notebook), backup itself with S3QL to Amazon S3;
- my Linux server connects to Amazon S3 using S3QL and download Windows mobile clients backup.

If I use commercial stuff, I cannot access backup stored on Amazon S3 and encrypted by commercial applications.
Do you have a magic solution to my problem?

Thanks

Best,
David

I solved the problem. I don't use Windows any more.

Set up samba + VPN on your Linux server, and access S3QL that way?
