Rclone mount w/ systemd when user logs in, unmounts @ logout

Help and Support

I usually run rclone without --daemon so systemd controls the process directly.

Here is the systemd file I use for serving beta.rclone.org. Note the Type=notify - rclone sends a systemd notification when the mount is ready.
