I need a vb.net utility that will run as a windows service on a server and access SQL Server to backup information. It will be set to backup an instance of sql server including all of the databases. It will perform these backups using SQL Server's native backup ability.
There will be a configuration winforms GUI to set the SQL instance name, username, password. It will also set the delivery path, which will be an FTP address, username, password, remote folder, passive setting... There will also be a time of day or interval setting for when it should start. The GUI will also have a button to manually stop/start the windows service. There will be a task bar icon also to show the windows service's current status, and double clicking it will bring up the GUI.
All of the files need to be encrypted using PGP before delivery. This should be done using the open source GPGP library.
