+ownCloud information presented is based on a ''"volunteer"'' author's experience and curiosity.  Content in pages presented can change quickly or be moved to other pages where it is better facilitated. Your are welcome to contribute but please please be aware that other authors maybe submitting changes at the same time. Please use the ''“Work in Progress”'' wiki tag when making changes to a new or existing ownCloud page and of course removing the tag when changes are completed.
-* ownCloud maintains its own account security system and does not utilize the Amahi host server's user account system.
+Should you have any Amahi ownCloud specific questions please submit inquiries to the '''[https://forums.amahi.org/viewforum.php?f=43 Amahi ownCloud Forum]'''. You can also consult the '''[http://forum.owncloud.org/ ownCloud Community Project Forum]'''
-* ownCloud maintains its own data storage directory area and is not the same as the shared directories (via Samba) created from the Amahi dashboard.
-* There is no "automatic upgrade" facility for new versions of ownCloud. An administration "update" feature is available, but will only work on a LAMP server using ownCloud install defaults. Once the "one-click install" Amahi package has been updated to a new version of ownCloud the package will have to be reinstalled. When reinstalling the ownCloud package make sure all data is backed up.
-* "Applications" are available as "one-click installs" and can enhance ownCloud functionality. Some application are internal to ownCloud while others need to be downloaded, installed, and enabled (still one-click). Third party applications are considered "as-is", operation for some may be "quirky". therefore, support for the "3rd party" applications is the responsibility of each contributing author, unless they are absorbed in to the "core" ownCloud binaries. The administration apps setting will only display applications for the installed ownCloud version on the private host server.
-===Amahi ownCloud Installation===
+----
+<!--Category References follow-->
-* The "ownCloud Community" default installation on a typical LAMP server places the data directory with the application binaries. The Amahi installation places the data directory at "/var/hda/files/owncloud/data/".
+[[Category:Apps]]
-* The Amahi installation package is a "one-click install" and takes care of; downloading and installing required software dependencies, setting up the ownCloud database, ownCloud "administration" user.
+[[Category:ownCloud Collection]]
-* Initial login credentials for the administration user:
- '''''User name:'''''  admin
- '''''Password:'''''  admin
-:'''Note: '''Remember to change the administration user password shortly after installation

- Server Console: http://owncloud
- Workstation: http://owncloud.server_name
-===Navigating Your ownCloud===
-Navigating through ownCloud is quite straight forward. After a user login the screen displays a menu on the left side. Please note that these are the initial "applications" supplied with the ownCloud Community release. The commercial versions of ownCloud are packaged a bit differently. As time goes by with the menu will change from an applications menu to a mix of other application plug-ins (when installed), or shared folders. Following are naviagation screenshots of each of the initial applications.
