Ran into some issues, can I confirm what you said? So I first installed dropbox according to dropbox instructions: $ cd ~ && wget -O - "https://www.dropbox.com/download?plat=lnx.x86_64"; | tar xzf - That completes ok... Then they say: Next, run the Dropbox daemon from the newly created .dropbox-dist folder. ~/.dropbox-dist/dropboxd I attempted this in the same Fedore template, is that correct? It installs but doesn't complete - it actually starts dropbox file synching. I know you said that after I install according to your instructions to do: $ sudo dnf install nautilus-dropbox I assume that is also on the Fedora template? I tried that with and without the last instruction from dropbox on the template. Incidentally, I am able to successfully load dropbox and synch on any of my VMs... (of course I lose it when restart). So just need clarification on the template. PS - I do not want Dropbox to start in a VM unless I tell it. Thanks!
