[Box Backup-dev] Re: [Box Backup] ChrisMerge_1828

Sorry, no, I never wrote that script.  My customers haven't cared about whether or not I have
access to their Box Backup keys, so I just generate them myself on my Ubuntu Box Backup CA box. 
I'd be glad to attempt to write that script if there is significant need, after I double check
with Chris to make sure it is not already in Boxi.

(For the record, I'd rather Chris worked on the Windows named pipe issue so that we can get easy
client-side geo-redundancy.  

Speaking of geo-redundancy, I right now have a 5GB Box Backup client test syncing up to my Box
Backup image instance running on Amazon's EC2.  I'm working on how to mount my S3 account to that
EC2 instance so that I can get around the 160GB limit, probably by buying S3InfiDisk/S3DFS for
now, unless someone has a better idea.  Thoughts anyone?)
