My choice is webcalendar + Apache2 + MySQL.

Evolution has a bug that doesn't do this right yet:

What I've found works well is the Mozilla Sunbird calendar with an
subscribed .ics file on a webdav folder.

WebDAV is dead easy with apache2. It might be with plain old apache as
well, but I don't know.

1) make sure that dav.load, dav_fs.conf, and dav_fs.load are linked in
   /etc/apache2/mods-enabled from .../mods-available

2) create a directory in /var/www (or wherever, really, since you can
   always alias it); for this example we'll use /var/www/webdav

3) create a password file with entries for each of your users as
   /etc/apache2/passwd.dav (use htpasswd, check its man page for usage)

4) in a sites file (e.g. /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/default), add the
   following:


Dav On
AuthType Basic
AuthName "WebDAV Storage"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/passwd.dav
AllowOverride Limit AuthConfig


5) for simplicity, we will give each user or group its own subdirectory and
   place a .htaccess file in each subdirectory. For my purposes, I have a
   gss directory (mine), a cws directory (my wife's) and a Shared directory
   (a "group" directory we're both in). The .htaccess files look like this:


::
/var/www/webdav/cws/.htaccess
::

require user cws


require user gss cws


::
/var/www/webdav/gss/.htaccess
::

require user gss


require user gss cws


::
/var/www/webdav/Shared/.htaccess
::

require user gss cws


6) deal with whatever SSL issues concern you; I allow only HTTPS from
   outside my (wired-only) LAN and HTTP or HTTPS within it.

can you say a few words about setting up webdav?  wouldn't mind
something of this sort on my server.  possibly using evolution, maybe

My immediate thought is WebDAV and a calendar client (web-based or
otherwise) that can handle .ics files on WebDAV. At the moment I have three
calendars set up this way:

1) Mine, which I can read/write and my wife can read
2) My wife's, which I can read and my wife can read/write
3) Shared, which both of us can read/write

We use the Mozilla calendar extension, but there are certainly web apps
that can do the same. Your real issue is going to be populating the list of
subscribed calendars (readable or read/write) for the user, including
WebDAV authentication.

Kontact + IMAP or WebDav has worked very well for me.

Squirrelmail - a webmail addon to your procmail has a nice shared calendar and
personal calendar plugin(s).  Even if you don't use squirrelmail the plugins
are php so I would suppose you can port them.

OT: Shared calendar server on Debian

2005-11-03 Thread Caleb Walker
Hello all,
I am wondering if there are any suggestions for a shared calendar system
on Debian.  My setup is as follows.  I have a Cyrus, Spamassassin,
Procmail, Postfix and OpenLDAP running on a server that I have in this
office for mail flow and single sign on to different web applications
and email.  I also want to implement a shared calendar where I can have
shared personal calendars as well as shared public calendars depending
on login or group.  Has anyone done this and if so how or what products?
I breifly searched the debian archives and google and came up with Kolab
so far which seems to be more Redhat freindly then I like.

Thanks in advance,
Caleb Walker
