RDUP-TR(1)			     rdup			    RDUP-TR(1)

NAME
       rdup-tr - transform rdup	output

SYNOPSIS
       rdup-tr [OPTION]...

DESCRIPTION
       Transform  rdup output into something else. Where something else	can be
       a tar, cpio, pax	archive	or another rdup	stream.

       The rdup	archive	must be	given on rdup-tr's standard input.

       You can select multiple types of	output (-O  flag),  but	 you  must  be
       aware  that you may loose some information in formats other than	rdup's
       own, see	the table below.

       You may also supply rdup-tr with	only a list of pathnames, this can  be
       selected	with the -L flag.

       The following table shows what happens with the output depending	on the
       input.

       0      OK

       D      delete information is lost

       H      hardlink information is lost

			    |		    |
		  output    | tar,cpio,pax  |  rdup
	      input	    |		    |
	      ------------- | ------------- | ------
	      rdup	    |	  D	    |	0
	      filelist	    |	  DH	    |	H
			    |		    |

OPTIONS
       -L     Select list input	format.	Normally rdup-tr accepts rdup  output,
	      with  this  option  you can give it a list of path names.	 Note:
	      with list	input rdup-tr will `stat()` each file, so this can not
	      be used in remote	back ups.

       -O     Output  format.  This  can be 'tar', 'cpio', 'pax' or 'rdup'. It
	      defaults to 'rdup'.

       -X key Read the encryption key from the file key	and encrypt all	 paths
	      with  Blowfish and this key and iv. After	the encryption the bi-
	      nary data	is converted into ASCII	using an URL safe  (Section  4
	      of RFC 3548) version of base64 encode.

	      The  encryption  key  must be on the first line and the key size
	      must be 16 and 8 bytes for the iv, so 24 in total.

       -Y key Read the decryption key from the file key	and decrypt all	 paths
	      with  Blowfish and this key. Before the encryption the paths are
	      converted	to binary by using an URL safe version of  base64  de-
	      code.

       -c     Force output to the tty. Normally	rdup-tr	wants to see it's out-
	      put redirected.

       -v     Be more verbose. Print the processed file	names to standard  er-
	      ror.

       -V     Print rdup-tr's version.

       -h     A	short help.

EXAMPLES
       The following is	possible

	       rdup -P gzip -P "mcrypt -f KEY -c" /dev/null /home | \
	       rdup-tr -O tar -X<(echo secret) | gzip >	\
	       my-home-zipped-crypted-pathcrypted-tar.gz

       That  is: all files under /home are gzipped and encrypted on a per file
       basis (first line). Further more, all pathnames are Blowfish  encrypted
       (second	line) with the key 'secret'.  This is put in a tar file, which
       is then compressed, resulting in	the final output (final	line).

       Creating	a compressed and encrypted tar archive out of a	full rdup dump
       might be	done as	follows

	       rdup -P gzip -P "mcrypt -f KEY -c" /dev/null /home | \
	       rdup-tr -O tar >	my-home-zipped-and-crypted.tar

       Or even pack and	unpack it on the fly

	       rdup  -P	 gzip  -P  "mcrypt -fKEY -c" /dev/null /home | rdup-tr
	      -Otar | \
	       ssh user@remotehost tar xvCf /tmp -

       Or encryption with openssl

	      rdup -P "openssl enc -e -des-cbc -k secret" /dev/null /home

       Or, compressing with gzip, encrypting with openssl and then compressing
       the entire archive yet again

	       rdup  -P	 gzip -P "openssl enc -e -des-cbc -k secret" /dev/null
	      /home | \
	       gzip > my_compressed_encrypted_rdup_archive.gz

EXIT CODE
       rdup-tr return a	zero exit code on success, otherwise 1 is returned.
