Where Is OneDrive Config in Ubuntu and How to Configure It Properly

You can access the OneDrive configuration settings in Ubuntu by using the Files app, specifically by clicking on the "Connect to server" option. This will open the "Connect to Server" window.

To configure OneDrive properly, you'll need to enter the following information: the server address (onedrive.davical.com), the path to your OneDrive folder (/remote), and a username and password.

OneDrive is configured to use the WebDAV protocol, which allows for secure file transfer and synchronization. This protocol is enabled by default when you connect to OneDrive using the Files app.

You can also configure OneDrive by using the command-line interface, specifically by using the "davical" command to connect to your OneDrive account.
