 You will be prompted for a username and password. For the username, you may supply either your account email address (which will select the default channel), or a channel nickname for the channel you wish to authenticate as. In either case use your account password for the password field. You will then be able to copy, drag/drop, edit, delete and otherwise work with files as if they were an attached disk drive.

+**Installing The Cloud as a Filesystem on Linux**
+
+To install your cloud directory as a filesystem, you first need davfs2 installed.  99% of the time, this will be included in your distributions repositories.  In Debian
+
+`apt-get install davfs2`
+
+If you want to let normal users mount the filesystem
+
+`dpkg-reconfigure davfs2`
+
+and select "yes" at the prompt.
+
+Now you need to add any user you want to be able to mount dav to the davfs2 group
+
+`usermod -aG davfs2 <DesktopUser>`
+
+Edit /etc/fstab
+
+`nano /etc/fstab`
+
+to include your cloud directory by adding
+
+`example.com/cloud/ /mount/point davfs user,noauto,uid=<DesktopUser>,file_mode=600,dir_mode=700 0 1`
+
+Where example.com is the URL of your hub, /mount/point is the location you want to mount the cloud, and <DesktopUser> is the user you log in to one your computer.  Note that if you are mounting as a normal user (not root) the mount point must be in your home directory.
+
+For example, if I wanted to mount my cloud to a directory called 'cloud' in my home directory, and my username was bob, my fstab would be
+
+`example.com/cloud/ /home/bob/cloud davfs user,noauto,uid=bob,file_mode=600,dir_mode=700 0 1`
+
+Now, create the mount point.
+
+`mkdir /home/bob/cloud`
+
+and also create a directory file to store your credentials
+
+`mkdir /home/bob/.davfs2`
+
+Create a file called 'secrets'
+
+`nano /home/bob/.davfs2/secrets`
+
+and add your cloud login credentials
+
+`example.com/cloud <username> <password>`
+
+
+Where <username> and <password> are the username and password for your hub.
+
+Don't let this file be writeable by anyone who doesn't need it with
+
+`chmod 600 /home/bob/.davfs2/secrets`
+
+Finally, mount the drive.
+
+`mount example.com/cloud`
+
+You can now find your cloud at /home/bob/cloud and use it as though it were part of your local filesystem - even if the applications you are using have no dav support themselves.
