Setting up an Account
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
If no account has been configured, ownCloud Client will automatically assist
|
|
you in connecting to your ownCloud Server after the application has been
|
|
started.
|
|
|
|
As a first step, specify the URL to your Server, just
|
|
like you would when you open your ownCloud instance inside a browser.

|
|
|
|
.. note:: Make sure to use ``https://`` if the server supports it. Otherwise,
|
|
your password and all data will be transferred to the server unencrypted.
|
|
This makes it easy for third parties to intercept your communication, and
|
|
getting hold of your password!
|
|
|
|
Next, you are prompted for your username and password. Again, use the same
|
|
credentials that you would use to log on via the web interface.

|
Finally, choose the folder that ownCloud Client is supposed to sync the
|
|
contents of your ownCloud account with. By default, this is a folder
|
|
called `ownCloud`, which will reside in your home directory.

|
|
After pressing `Connect`, ownCloud Client will commence with the syncing
|
|
process. The next screen will give you the opportunity to review your
|
|
settings:
