I have only tested it against Dropbox.

=== Installation ===
=== Installation ===
Rclone can be installed as follows: (https://rclone.org/install/)
Rclone is made available as a statically linked executible and can be installed as follows: (https://rclone.org/install/)
<pre>
curl -O https://downloads.rclone.org/rclone-current-linux-amd64.zip
unzip rclone-current-linux-amd64.zip
cd rclone-*-linux-amd64
sudo cp rclone /usr/bin/
sudo chown root:root /usr/bin/rclone
sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/rclone
</pre>
Note that this loads the 64 bit version, other versions are available.
Then you can run the configuration process:
<pre>rclone config</pre>
Choose your cloud provider and follow the instructions for a headless server.
For Dropbox I had to run rclone on a desktop with a browser, giving permission for rclone to be allowed to connect to Dropbox and then copy and paste a key string across to the smeserver.
=== Useage ===
Here is the shell script that I developed and tested to see if it would work:
<code>
<pre>
!/bin/sh
signal-event pre-backup
cd /
rclone mkdir smeserver-dropbox:backup
rclone mkdir smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver
rclone mkdir smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/etc/e-smith/templates-user-custom
</code>
rclone mkdir smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/etc/e-smith/templates-custom
rclone mkdir smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/home
rclone mkdir smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/ssh
rclone mkdir smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/root
rclone copy -v / smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver --files-from backup-files-list-rclone
rclone copy -v "etc/e-smith/templates-custom/" "smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/etc/e-smith/templates-custom/"
rclone copy -v "etc/e-smith/templates-user-custom/" "smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/etc/e-smith/templates-user-custom/"
rclone copy -v etc/ssh smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/ssh
rclone copy -v root smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/root
rclone copy -v home/e-smith/ smeserver-dropbox:backup/smeserver/home/ --exclude "tmp/**"
</pre>
=== Incremental Backup ===
holk has documented a use of rclone that will give an incremental backup for up to 7 days (or whatever you might want)
See here:

=== Encrypted ===
Rclone allows the remote data to be encrypted by specifying an intermediate remote which does the encrypting.
[https://rclone.org/crypt/ See here.]
I have not tried this, but it looks pretty easy to add in and does not involve the SMEServer software.
=== Restore ===
I assume that you can restore by just copying the data back from the cloud provider and then doing a signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot;
=== Uninstall ===
=== Uninstall ===
Just delete /usr/bin/rclone and the config file /root/.config/rclone/rclone.conf
