There is a FUSE implementation for dropbox; https://github.com/arekzb/dropf= use It is not in the ports tree. It probably requires devel/py-fusefs since it = is written in Python. A similar thing seems to exist for onedrive: https://github.com/mk-fg/onedr= ive-fuse-fs Depending on how your computer connects to the internet, you can mount it using a startup script (on a desktop), or use a script called by devd to mo= unt or unmount it automatically once an ethernet connection comes up or goes do= wn (laptop). E.g. on a laptop I might have the following in /etc/devd/conf; notify 0 { match "system" "IFNET"; match "type" "LINK_UP"; match "subsystem" "(re0|wlan0)"; action "/usr/local/etc/rc.d/etherup $subsystem"; }; The etherup script contains; #!/bin/sh LOGGER=3D"logger -t etherup -p daemon.notice" subsystem=3D$1 ${LOGGER} "The '$subsystem' link has come up. Acquiring IP address." service dhclient quietstart $subsystem ${LOGGER} "Starting firewall." service pf onestart ${LOGGER} "Synchronize time." service ntpd onestart You could easily add the dropbox and onedrive stuff to that: if [ ! -e /var/run/dropfuse ]; then mkdir -p /media/dropbox touch /var/run/dropfuse python dropfuse.py <dropbox.com url> /media/dropbox & fi Of course you'd have to create multiple different directories if you'd like= to mount different dropbox URLs. And you probably want to write a scripts than kills the dropfuse script and removes the file in /var/run if devd gets a LINK_DOWN on event.
