[CalendarServer-users] Port issue

[Douglas O'Connor]

Hello,

Thanks to Emil I was able to solve the port issue on the G4. On my  
MacBook however, after checking out the new 1.0 release, the run  
script seems to not be listening to the caldavd-dev.plist config  
file. Anything I change in there seems to make little difference,  
especially the IP addresses. Sure enough, it won't bind to my actual  
IP, hostname, or even desired port.

Is there anything different about the new release that might cause  
this? I've tried recompiling all of subversion, removing DCS and  
starting over from the checkout, and same result. Again, am I missing  
some simple toggle? This time at least I have the conf files set right.

Thanks in advance,

Doug
