Retooled dropbox init file to work with dropbox systemd systemunit file. Should be in /bin as /bin/dropbox with permission 755, see my unit file here: https://gist.github.com/kbrnsr/3984a0b45dcce5430d01
#!/bin/sh
# To configure, add line with DROPBOX_USERS="user1 user2" to /etc/sysconfig/dropbox
# Probably should use a dropbox group in /etc/groups instead.
# Source function library.
