otto_robotto

Home server executor that takes direction from dropbox, neato

What does otto robotto allow you to do?

Run otto on a server you wish to control remotely using dropbox to pass commands to and execute

Once otto is running simply edit the commands.conf file and give it one of the pre-determined commands to run (see below)

You can also execute custom commands if you define them in otto.conf on the server, this is to prevent someone from maliciously executing commands on your server should they get access to your dropbox a/c.

Data from otto can be retrieved by using the log command which returns the full log file to dropbox
