Sharing Outlook calendars via FreeBSD?

2007-07-16 Thread Nejc Skoberne

Hello,

I am using a FreeBSD 5.3 server in a company with approx. 30
users. There is also a Samba server as a PDC and a mail server.

The users would like to share their Outlook calendars. What
are my options regarding having FreeBSD as a platform to do this?
OpenGroupware is just for Linux and I can't find any
documentation how to put it on FreeBSD (the linux-opengroupware
port expired last year).

Thanks,
Nejc

You could try a couple of things...

First, you could evaluate some software like Communigate or Axigen but I 
can tell you that, Communigate at least, is not a very good product.  
Your best bet is to either try Axigen, which I haven't tested, or do 
what I did...


Install WebDav on a FreeBSD server and use this Outlook plugin to 
connect to webdav servers and save your files in ical format.


Outlook Plugin
http://sourceforge.net/projects/remotecalendars/

Before you flame back with, it only works with Outlook 2003.  Trust 
me, it's a small price to pay to not have to use some over-priced server 
solution like Communigate or Scalix.


Just my 2 cents...
