I've been playing with Ubuntu One lately and it's pretty nice, but I'm wondering if it has a command-line client for use on systems with no web browser installed. It would be cool if I could access shared files from headless servers. Any ideas?
Ubuntu One command-line client

Ubuntu One looks interesting.. Haven't heard of it before... Is it secure? But in regards to the shares.. Wouldn't samba work? Or am I missing something?

Ubuntu One lets you share files between Ubuntu computers no matter where they're located, so it does more than samba, which is only realistic for computers on the same local network. I think I read that the data transfers are encrypted, so barring any other vulnerabilities, it should be secure.
It will be included by default in Ubuntu 9.10 under the Applications>Internet menu.
If only I could find a CLI client for it...
Hmmm drop box is quite better imo, and also ubuntu one is only for jaunty at the moment.

Are you sure Dropbox data transfers over the network aren't encrypted? I thought they were.
I as well.

I don't want to start an argument and I have no particular attachment to Dropbox (I've never used it myself), but are you *sure*? According to softpedia:
all files are transported over SSL
Have you seen evidence that this is not the case? I'm just curious (and also interested in possibly writing a review of Ubuntu One, and want to know its strengths and weaknesses vs. similar tools).
