Hi all,

http://www.rho.cc/index.php/calendar-and-contact-server/59-calendar-setup/10...

Simple step by step guide for installing the latest builds of darwin calendar and contact server on centos Linux. This guide which is based on my version 2 guide takes you all the way from fetching the code to compiling to running both calendar and contact server.

I'm also writing a guide to the version 3 configuration files which are different from the version 2 ones.. I'll let you know when thats ready.

Cheers, ---Guy

Guy, thank you - that will be extremely useful to me. (Nit-pick: it should be "dependencies" and not "dependancies" under your header "If you see errors".)

Corrected... thanks :)

I've just installed Calendar Server 2.3 on Slackware Linux 13, but am looking at the development version with a view to installing version 3 when it is released.

The major challenge for me, I think, will be to get 2.3 (or 3) working with a directory suitable for a single-sign-on environment, rather than with just the XML File Directory Service of the test environment. I have an LDAP directory of users here, and a Kerberos KDC. I've not setup such a Kerberised service before. I see various reports about using Kerberos with Calendar Server, but have not yet found a setup tutorial. I have much to learn.

The hard part with LDAP will be getting all the extra attributes in there... and as DCS is in flux most people don't want to mess with extending LDAP until it's settled down and can be sure you'll not have to adjust it again later. I too use LDAP for most things, calendaring is the one that at the moment we're using XML just for simplicity sake, after all our user base doesn't change that often that we can't hand change the files. Good luck and please post any successes you get so we can leverage your wins.

Sorry, I've not tried to install DCS on a Mac... I no longer have access to a Mac Server, and really don't want to install on my desktop or laptop system :( I think the main differences will be the package names, and versions which will need to be installed.

Guy -

It's been a couple of months since you did this, but if it's still fresh enough in your mind... do you know what the differences would be between your guide and installing DCS 3 on a Mac running it's native UNIX (as found in 10.6.3 - maybe going to Snow Leopard 10.6.4 soon...)?

Thanks!

Conrad
