CrashPlan Simple Install

CrashPlan is a great backup service allowing local, remote, and premium hosted backups. They even support Windows, Mac, and Linux.

While I can't speak to the install experience for Windows or Mac, on Linux, it's horrible.

It's an interactive install that doesn't take any flags to accept defaults. As a Ubuntu user, there is a new version every 6 months and to make the upgrade process easier, I bash script the installation of all my core programs so I can reformat and be back up an running with ease.

This bash script will download a recent version, untar it, and install it with all the defaults.

	## Paste this into: /usr/lib/systemd/system/crashplan.service
	## Then:
	# /usr/local/crashplan/bin/CrashPlanEngine stop
	# systemctl enable --now crashplan
	## Check whether it is running:
	# systemctl status crashplan
