Users will need this information when configuring access to OneDrive from a Linux Centos 8 VDI session.
Currently Unavailable
Due to a Linux kernel security vulnerability, OneDrive in Linux Centos 8 VDI is currently unavailable. Further information is available here.
Step-by-step guide
Configure
$ rclone config
- Select "n" for "New remote"
- Name your drive "OneDrive"
- Select "26" for type of storage
Then follow the instructions. Default answers can be accepted safely for every question that has one.
When prompted, choose to use automatic config. This will open your browser and you will have to authenticate to receive a token.
After this, you will be asked to:
Choose a number from below, or type in an existing value 1 / OneDrive Personal or Business \ "onedrive" 2 / Root Sharepoint site \ "sharepoint" 3 / Type in driveID \ "driveid" 4 / Type in SiteID \ "siteid" 5 / Search a Sharepoint site \ "search" Your choice>
Answer "1" (OneDrive Personal or Business).
All done. You can exit now.
$ mkdir ~/OneDrive ; chmod 755 ~/OneDrive
Mount
$ rclone mount --vfs-cache-mode full OneDrive: ~/OneDrive &
For more detailed information, please visit: https://rclone.org/commands/rclone_mount/
Unmount
$ fusermount -u ~/OneDrive
Refresh token
$ rclone config
Edit OneDrive, answer yes to the first question. Answer all defaults until rclone says that the token already exists, refresh? Say yes.
- The drive will stay mounted as long as the session is kept alive
- Even if the empty destination mount point is readable for group/all users, it won't be accessible by anyone but the user while it is mounted
- NEVER mount without the "--vfs-cache-mode full" command-line parameter to avoid risk of data corruption
Autostart
In order to get the mount added on login, you need to create a file named onedrive.desktop in ~/.config/autostart with the following lines:
[Desktop Entry] Name=Onedrive Type=Application Exec=sh -c "rclone mount --vfs-cache-mode full OneDrive: ~/OneDrive &"
