Thank you very much (to David as well),
I didn't realize I could create my own directory service and it would
definitely simplify account management a lot. I just need to figure
out on my side whether I want the server so tightly coupled to my
application. I'm also on a different project to implement a reusable
Calendar "Resource" and my initial thoughts were that many
applications would use a single server for all their scheduling
needs, but I hadn't addressed also using a single directory service,
which both simplifies and complicates the matter. I'll think about
it...
Thanks again,
Tyler

I do know that Cosmo Calendar Server has a Cosmo Management

I've
missed?
The latest calendar server code has a generic directory module that
can be used to populate accounts. There are several different
implementations of this, including an xml file based variant, and
open directory variant, and an SQL database variant. If your web
app uses a directory or database of some form for its users and you
can access that from "outside" then you could write your own
calendar server directory implementation to get user accounts
directly from there.
