From the client browser I can see that the proxies are stored under eg.
/principals/users/user09/calendar-proxy-write
If I am user09 can I dynamically add other users to these resources via http or do these proxies have to be set up beforehand via the directory service?
Can I add groups to these proxies instead of users? So an "admin-group" belongs to calendar-proxy-write instead of constantly making sure all admins are in there?
The calendar-proxy-write and calendar-proxy-read "sub-principal" resources are in effect "groups". So If user09 wants to make user10 a read-write proxy, all they need to do is add user10 to the DAV:group-member-set WebDAV property of the user09 calendar-proxy-write resource. So a simple PROPPATCH: PROPPATCH /principals/users/user09/calendar-proxy-write HTTP/1.1 Host: localhost ... <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> <D:propertyupdate xmlns:D="DAV:"> <D:set> <D:prop> <D:group-member-set><D:href>/principals/users/user10</D:href></D:group-member-set> </D:prop> </D:set> </D:propertyupdate> Note that you have to re-write the DAV:group-member-set each time, so you need to get the existing list first and make changes to that as a whole, then update the entire list via the PROPPATCH. And yes, our server does support adding group principals into the DAV:group-member-set property and the server takes care of automatically "expanding" that and effectively making all members of that group a proxy for the relevant user. -- Cyrus Daboo
