How to use two yandex.disi at the same time

Initially, new users of Yandex.Disk are issued only 10 GB of files for files. This is certainly not enough. But, if you are the owner of several accounts in Yandex, then why not increase this place due to the simultaneous use of the spirit of Yandex.Diskov on your computer.

In fact, at the same time you can use how many Yandex accounts. But, it is necessary to leave one account and enter another.

There is more complex, with the technical side of the question, method. At which you can create an array of several Yandex.Disc. For example, you have 10 accounts in Yandex. When using the disk, it is initially given on each 10 GB. Dispute mathematical calculations we get 100 GB of space for files.

But today, there is no meaning in this. Moreover, with the intensive use of Yandex.Disk, you can get for free several times more than it is given when registering. Here is a screenshot of the account, which is free of charge 262 GB.

In addition, there is no point in two disks and due to the fact that you can use only one Yandex.Disk application on your mobile devices. But, you can install other cloud storage applications for smartphones, tablets and PCs: Google Drive, Onedrive, Dropbox, [email protected] and others. What will help increase the amount of network storage several times.

VIDEO. How to upload a file and provide him with the opportunity to download (how to give a download from other)

In pleasant communication with Yandex disk, only one thing is saddown: a small highlighted volume. Let even an opportunity to add space, but still not enough.

The application from Yandex developers does not give simultaneously working with several accounts, standard means Windows is not able to connect multiple network drives from one address.

The solution was found. This is technology WebDav and client Carotdav. This technology allows you to connect to the repository, copy files from a computer to the cloud and back.

Using CarotDAV, you can also check files from one repository (account) to another.

Tip: Download Portable version And write down the folder with the program on the USB flash drive. This version implies the client's work without installation. In this way you can access your repositories from any computer. In addition, the installed application may refuse to start your second copy.

So, we decided with the tools, now we will proceed to implement. Run the client, go to the menu "File", "NEW CONNECTION" and choose "WebDAV".

In the window that opens, assign the name to our new connection, enter the login from the Yandex account and password.
In field "URL" Write the address. For Yandex Disc he is:
https://webdav.yandex.ru.

If, for security purposes, you want to enter the username and password every time, then check the checkbox specified in the screenshot below.

Press "OK".

If necessary, create multiple connections with different data (login password).

Opens the cloud double click on the connection icon.

To simultaneously connect to multiple accounts, you must run another copy of the program (double click on the executable file or shortcut).

You can work with these windows, as with conventional folders: Copy files there and back and delete them. Management occurs through the built-in context menu of the client. Drag-n-Drop) also works.

Summarize. The obvious plus of this solution - files are stored in the cloud and do not occupy a hard disk. You can also start an unlimited number of disks.

September 7, 2012 |

The topic of the connection of Yandex.Diska in Linux is not new and not to say that it is complicated. The disk as was normally connected during the period of closed testing, so normally connected now. In general, it is nice that Yandex did not invent a bike and used the supported and distributed WebDAV protocol to provide access to the disk.

I connected the service on invite and successfully used them, and after opening a free access, I suddenly thought - was it possible to connect several disks? I decided to check this feature, and at the same time I.Disk as an exercise for all mobile devices (ES FileExplorer file manager for Android supports including work with a disc) - to throw pictures from the tablet on the road to record logs and books on the phone Yes, you never know why a network flash drive can still come in handy.

So below small instruction By connecting a few Y.Diskov in Linux. By the way, if someone is not yet familiar with the disk or did not have time to start it - it is beneficial to the invited even more than the inviting room - the invited receives 1 GB of places (to the already available 10 GB) against the bonus in 0.5 GB for inviting. It's time to try!

Getting ready for flight

To begin with, it is worth installing the utility dAVFS2.If it is not yet installed: sudo Aptitude Install Davfs2

Then create a new directory that will be a point of mounting for a disk (directory for mounting the first disk I already had, so I create only one):

sudo Mkdir / Media / Dimio-Blog
sudo Chown Dimio: Dimio / Media / Dimio-Blog /

I immediately add a user to a group to work with DAVFS (the group is created when installing DAVFS2):

sudo UserMod -A -g Davfs2 Dimio

Now you can check that everything works - insert the disk to the created directory:

sudo Mount -t DAVFS -O UID \u003d 1000 HTTPS: // WebDav.yandex.ru / Media / Dimio-Blog /

In the process, the login and password from the mail on Yandex will be requested - we enter data from the box, which will be mounted in the specified directory and check the operation of the disk.

From the flying shelf to supersonic

Making sure that everything works as it should, proceed to a slightly relief working with a disc. To begin with - add mount options to the end of the file fSTABIn order not to dive each time a long command for mounting: sudoedit / etc / fstab

https://webdav.yandex.ru /media/yandex.disk DAVFS GID \u003d DAVFS2, UID \u003d 1000, FILE_MODE \u003d 666, DIR_MODE \u003d 777, User, _Netdev 0 0
https://webdav.yandex.ru / Media / Dimio-blog DAVFS GID \u003d DAVFS2, UID \u003d 1000, FILE_MODE \u003d 600, DIR_MODE \u003d 700, USER, NOAUTO 0 0

I have a second disc that I have a common one, and the second is for backups, which is understandable from the access rights that are exposed when mounting. Option noauto. Need that when loading the disc is not mounted automatically - the network at this moment still does not work yet. BUT _NetdevIn turn, allows you to specify the system on the need to mount the disk only after network interfaces are raised.

Now get rid of the need to enter manually login and password when mounting the disks - for this you need to add to the end of the file / etc / davfs2 / secrets The following lines (each line is responsible for your disc): sudoedit / etc / davfs2 / secrets

/media/yandex.disk login_ot_proof Password_T_Поты
/ Media / Dimio-Blog Dimio-Blog

Logins and passwords are stored in open video And access to them is limited only by the rights of the file system access - that is, almost in any way. Therefore, for a "secrend" disc, I have been prescribed and login, and password (especially since without this disk when loading the OS will not be automatically configured), and for the "private" - only login, the password is entered manually when mounting.

The first - exchange-disk is thus mounted simply - just execute the command sudo Mount / Media / Yandex.disk Or restart the computer to check the automotion.
When mounting the second, the password from the corresponding account in Yandex.We: sudo Mount / Media / Dimio-Blog /

Password for Dimio:
Please Enter The Password to Authenticate User Dimio-Blog With Server
https://webdav.yandex.ru or hit enter for none.
Password.

By screws!

Now - a pair of small checks to make sure that everything works: Dimio @ IBM $ Mount

https://webdav.yandex.ru on /media/yandex.disk Type Davfs (RW, Nosuid, Noexec, Nodev, _Netdev, GID \u003d 122, UID \u003d 1000)
https://webdav.yandex.ru ON / Media / Dimio-Blog Type Davfs (RW, Nosuid, NOEXEC, NODEV, _Netdev, GID \u003d 122, UID \u003d 1000

The disk connected, as a gift Yandex gives instructions, some song in mp3 (I do not imbued) and wallpaper for the desktop, symbolizing the salvation of the user data that fell into the complex circumstances:

And one more check - let's see if Yandex is about 10 GB of place (on the second disk I have not yet activated the last bonus to free place): Dimio. @ IBM $ DF -H / Media / Yandex.Disk / / Media / Dimio-Blog /

File System Type Size Used Cost used% Mounted in

https://webdav.yandex.ru DAVFS 6,0G 205M 5,9G 4% / Media / Dimio-blog

It remains to make sure that the exchange disk is truly exchanged and all devices that enjoy them can perform actions on files and directories. Create a test file: touch / Media / Yandex.Disk / Test . The file is created successfully, everything is in order: lS -LH / Media / Yandex.disk / Test

Access rights look incorrectly at first glance (after all, read access and record for all), but when mounting a disk from other devices, everything works as it should:
