Re: [SOGo] Calendar administration and usage
Wonderful, thank you both for your help. Makes sense — I think I was being a little too impatient and not logging the specified user off then back on. Thanks again. ~Laz PS — Great software.

SyncML is used e.g. for synchronization with old Blackberries. SyncML normally only allows synchronization of one calendar only. So you can choose which one to sync there. If you choose to sync multiple calendars, you have to specify a different "tag" for each of these, in order to distinguish on your mobile from which calendar the event originated. This is necessary for changes going back to SOGo. > Also, when I am administrating ACLs, what does it specifically mean to > subscribe a user?

In order to change her/his privileges, you have to double click his/her entry. Then you get a window in which you can set the privileges. If you don't do that, he/she will remain on default settings. The moment you revoke all privileges for an user, the corresponding calendar will be inaccessible for her/him. I sometimes get a delay with that, but logging out and logging in again of the revoked user fixes that always. > It would be very nice as an administrator to subscribe a user to someone > else's calendar, and to have that calendar appear automatically in the > first device/app they configure.

[SOGo] Calendar administration and usage
Hi there SOGo community, I'm trying to understand calendar administration a little better. As an "administrator" able to change ACLs, etc., my goal is to assign other users' calendars to new users (or better yet, to assign certain users' calendars based on LDAP group membership). Also, to be able to do this when they need my help to do so. So, I am trying to understand the functionality of SOGo's CalDAV and calendar systems. I have noticed a couple things that I am unable to find out good information on. What exactly does "synchronize" and the "tag" do in a user's calendar properties? Is this RFC definition? What does it affect if I choose not to synchronize, and why is the default calendar always synchronized? Also, when I am administrating ACLs, what does it specifically mean to subscribe a user? On the user's side, I cannot find any effect one way or another. And why is it that I cannot unsubscribe users? It would be very nice as an administrator to subscribe a user to someone else's calendar, and to have that calendar appear automatically in the first device/app they configure. Regardless, I love the CalDAV functionality. Thank you again. ~Laz Peterson-- users@sogo.nu https://inverse.ca/sogo/lists
