I think what i want to achive is similar to <br><br><a href="http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/calendarserver-dev/2009-March/000555.html">http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/calendarserver-dev/2009-March/000555.html</a> but it was disabled on code. Apart from my questions below is there a way to create "shared calendars" instead of "group calnedars" without using wiki?<br>
I use <a href="http://svn.calendarserver.org/repository/calendarserver/CalendarServer/tags/release/CalendarServer-3.0">http://svn.calendarserver.org/repository/calendarserver/CalendarServer/tags/release/CalendarServer-3.0</a> (Revision 8154)<br>

Hi,<br><br>I am trying to understand the concept of calendar sharing and I will appreciate if someone clarify this to me.<br><br>1) My main purpose is to use calendarserver as a remote calendar server that users can use remote calendar of their own via remotely. That can be done easily of course.<br>
<br>2) My second purpose is to create a shared calendar. <br><br>For my second aim what is the best practice? I am trying to understand the calendar sharing concept. How do you do that? <br><br>a)Using an account and giving out its user name and password to everybody involved? such as:<br>
<br> <user><br> <uid>shared</uid><br> <password>shared</password><br> <name>shared calendar</name><br> </user><br><br><br>b) Or creating a group and adding all users to that shared group so everybody can see each others calendar that is at the same group?<br>
<br>I have found a tutorial <a href="http://www.ronregev.com/misc/pim_server_tutorial/" target="_blank">http://www.ronregev.com/misc/pim_server_tutorial/</a> and actually i have applied to concept here but i can't seem to create a shared calendar especially usage of guid part as stated in that document:<br>
<br><b><span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif">If everything worked
so far, then we are almost set. Almost, but not quite. The problem is that the
CalDAV server identifies the calendar groups (meaning, the users) by assigning
them unique, long <span style="font-family:Courier New,Courier,monospace">guid</span> values. We have
to locate the newly-created <span style="font-family:Courier New,Courier,monospace">guid</span> value for our
first user, and add it to the file <span style="font-family:Courier New,Courier,monospace">accounts-text.xml</span>, or
the server will not know which calendar belongs to that user the next time we
run it. This is why we must add one user at a time to iCal - so that we can
identify the proper <span style="font-family:Courier New,Courier,monospace">guid</span> for this
user.</span></b><br><br>What is the relation of uid and guid? Is it used for sharing calendar if not what is the aim of guid here?<br><br>What is the aim of <user></user> and <group></group> it is just like on standart unix permissions?<br>
<br>c) My last question is that say there is a shared calendar <br><br>http://<server>/calendars/users/shared/calendar and i see that a client can make an event public or private. What is the aim of making an event public or private? It is used for calendar sharing in a grouped environment<br>
<br>Regards.<br>
