For ROSA users, we recommend to use 2Safe cloud service. However, we realize that some users prefer other products, and provide support for them in our system.

Dropbox

In order to use Dropbox in ROSA, you should install kfilebox package. With this package, the official Dropbox client for Linux will be installed and you will be provided with a configuration wizard.

All files synchronized with the Dropbox service will be located in the Dropbox folder in your home directory. All files that you place to that folder will be automatically uploaded to the Dropbox server.

SpiderOak

For SpiderOak one can use the official Linux client (https://spideroak.com/opendownload/) - download and install a cliend for RPM-Based systems (32bit, 64bit).

In the end of installation, you may see an error message saying "scriptlet failed, /bin/dbus-send: No such file or directory". This error doesn't affect SpiderOak client functionality and can be safely ignored.

ADrive

ADrive provides a client for Linux and WebDAV access (see below), but only for Personal Premium and Business accounts. For Personal Basic accounts, the only way to work with the service is to use a web browser.

Services with WebDAV support

Some cloud storage services (for example, 4Shared, Allbacup, Egnyte, CloudSafe, Yandex.Disk) support WebDAV access. You can setup such services in ROSA in the similar way like it is done for 2Safe (instructions, example video).

Note that parameters of WebDAV configuration can be different for different services - please consult appropriate instructions of particular service (4Shared, CloudSafe, Yandex.Disk).
