Dropbox isn't ideal for backup at all.
Look into Crashplan. Client-side encryption, unlimited versioning, never deletes files, and only $6/month for truly unlimited backup.

All I want is to encryptedly back up some directories on my home server, but nothing* really does that. I use SpiderOak at the moment, but it's not OSS.
* Except attic, but I'd rather pay for a service as important as this (I don't trust the remote server to not lose files): http://www.stavros.io/posts/holy-grail-backups/
- HN Discount for new customers is 10c per GB, per month. No charges for usage or traffic, etc.
- We just began announcing 3c pricing for 1PB and above. That may be more space than you require, however.
We've adjusted our pricing quite a bit in the last 30 days in conjunction with offering our PB filesystems, etc.
It's always worth emailing us.
Why so?
And if not one filesystem, curious how it would work in practice.
There are non-obvious ways to make a petabyte-sized zpool non-scary ... but even with those employed we still utilize raidz3 and have contingencies for rollbacks.
edit: for obvious reasons, that 1.1 PB number will grow by 50% in the very near future...
And raidz3 resilver must be horrible at those densities!
Again. Just curious. Email at jmancuso@expandrive if you feel like chatting. I know we offer a similar product, but we are about to leave zfs for the above concerns. Wouldn't mind sending some business your way.
Filesystem: ExpanDrive :)
IIRC, you need to tweak a non-headless client to direct it to the headless instance (some config file to point to the server vs localhost) and everything works from there.
