Setting up an Account
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
If no account has been configured, the ownCloud Client automatically assist in
|
|
connecting to your ownCloud server after the application has been started.
|
|
|
|
To set up an account:
|
|
|
|
1. Specify the URL to your Server. This is the same address that is used in the browser.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: images/wizard_url.png
|
|
:scale: 50 %
|
|
|
|
.. 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!
|
|
|
|
2. Enter the username and password. These are the same credentials used to log into the web interface.

|
|
|
|
3. Choose the folder with which you want the ownCloud Client to synchronize the
|
|
contents of your ownCloud account. By default, this is a folder called
|
|
`ownCloud`. This folder is created in the home directory.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: images/wizard_targetfolder.png
|
|

|
|
|
|
The synchronization between the root directories of the ownCloud server begins.

|
|
When selecting a local folder that already contains data, you can choose from two options:
|
|
|
|
* :guilabel:`Keep local data`: When selected, the files in the local folder on
|
|
the client are synchronized to the ownCloud server.
|
|
|
|
* :guilabel:`Start a clean sync`: When selected, all files in the local folder on the
|
|
client are deleted. These files are not syncrhonized to the ownCloud server.
