Setting permissions or ACLs on calendarserver.
by Mr. Eric Eugene Naujock 01 Jun '07

I am currently running calendarserver on an OSX server and I am using XMLDirectoryService. I have figured out how to add Principals to the accounts.xml file. When I look at the server using a web browser I can see all the users accounts. But when I browse to another users calendar cannot see their calendar. If I browse to my own calendar then I can see it just fine. I am guessing that I need to configure something along the lines of ACLs. I cannot find any documentation that allows me to configure to allow a person to read or edit another users calendar. Nor can I read another persons calendar. Is there documentation on how to set this up. I would use the Open Directory service but have not found out how to integrate it into our OD system. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- MacCafe 5610 Monroe St. Sylvania, OH 43613 Eric Naujock - ACSA 10.2,10.3, 10.4 Apple Sales Professional Phone:419-885-1240 X 241 http://www.mac-cafe.com e-mail: naujocke(a)mac-cafe.com AOL IM: erlic

Running Calendar Server under OS X Server 10.4.9
by Luc Jallois 14 May '07

Dear list, We are trying to run Calendar Server under OS X Server 10.4.9. We managed to launch it with a custom script, but not the default one. It seems that Launchctl doesn't recognize the bsexec argument. We don't have a clue about what to do to deal with this problem. Anyone willing to help on that matter? Thanks. Best regards, Luc Jallois

LDAP authentication

Dear list, I've succesfully been running iCal server as a smallbusiness caldav server. I did this on a Linux, thanks to the precise informations provided by Maxime Wacker I get just one issue, which was the dateutil patch, which was conflicting according to the version of dateutil I fetched. I repatched the lib manually, here is the result : --- setup.py 2007-05-09 14:55:46.000000000 +0200 +++ setup.py 2007-05-09 14:59:34.000000000 +0200 @@ -4,12 +4,14 @@ from os.path import isfile, join import glob import os +import sys + +datadir = get_python_lib(1)[len(sys.prefix)+1:] if isfile("MANIFEST"): os.unlink("MANIFEST") # Get PYTHONLIB with no prefix so --prefix installs work. -PYTHONLIB = join(get_python_lib(standard_lib=1, prefix=''), 'site-packages') ZONEINFO = join("dateutil", "zoneinfo") setup(name="python-dateutil", @@ -25,6 +27,6 @@ datetime module, available in Python 2.3+.

According to the wiki, OpenDirectoryService is the thing I should use. Is this DirectoryService somehow crossplatform ? How can it be configured to connect to the existing ldap directory, have you any doc about that ? Best regards Julien Chevalier
