In case you tried SparkleShare before the latest v1.1.0 release, my tor fix
was only added in v1.1.0. In order to use a Tor Hidden Service as your
SparkleShare server, you have to setup your ~/.ssh/config to work with .onion
addresses, then SparkleShare will use that config.
Mine looks something like this:
Host fakename.onion
User hans
Hostname fakeonionaddress.onion
HostKeyAlias fakeonionaddress.onion
Compression yes
PasswordAuthentication no
ProxyCommand connect -R remote -5 -S 127.0.0.1:9050 %h %p

SparkleShare works very similarly to Dropbox, but its a program developed by
one person in his spare time, so its not as smooth as Dropbox. If you give it
breathing room and be a little patient with SparkleShare, its the same as
Dropbox.
