 DAViCal is excellent. Perhaps more at home on a Debian based disty, but can 
 be installed with 'alien' on CentOS. I think I had to fiddle with some file 
 permissions on CentOS.

 It works well, although my brother (who I set it up for) never managed to 
 figure out the calendar permissions.

Yeah ~ That tool is very excellent , by the way , I searched another tool
called Bedework via the Google . This tool maybe is very useful. Because
you can use it to connect the LDAP Server for authenticating the users .

Bedework is an open-source enterprise calendar system that supports public,
personal, and
group calendaring. It is designed to conform to current calendaring
standards with a goal of
attaining strong interoperability between other calendaring systems and
clients. Bedework is
built with an emphasis on higher education, though it is used by many
commercial
enterprises.


So if the tool can be authenticated  the users using the LDAP Server ,
 it maybe very convenient to the  enterprise . isn't it ?

eGroupware and Horde are popular. I use Horde Webmail Edition which

On a related note, since you're a horde user: my ISP that I have my domain
hosted on offers roundcube, squirrelmail, and horde. What I don't like
about squirrelmail is that it does *not* do the right thing on a reply: I
have to manually put in who wrote the email I'm responding to. Does horde
do it correctly?

Sounds to me like a configuration issue somewhere. My installation of 
Squirrelmail fills in the reply to field with no problems.

If horde will work for you, you might want to look at the ClearOS 
distribution which comes up with Cyrus imap, horde, and ldap working out 
of the box (and a bunch of other stuff) with a web management interface. 
  I believe you can also get an outlook connector but there is a 
per-client license fee for that part.

2010-05-26 Thread Andres Lucena
Hi,

I think that maybe Zimbra, ClearOS, eGroupware, Zarafa or Horde are a
little too much if the only thing you want is to have the calendar.
Maybe you should check WebCalendar [1]; its pretty good, allowing you
to sync it with iCal/RSS, and a bunch of other things.

Of course it all depends on what do you want to do, I mean, if you
want something to replace Microsoft Exchange maybe you should check
one of the above, but if the only thing you want is a Calendar, then
WebCalendar is the tool for the job.

Bye,
Andres

I know its not open source, but have you considered Google Apps for
Domains?  You can get your own gmail/calendar/docs/sites/chat on your
own domain.com address for up to 50 people for free.  As well as
groups/contact sharing/calendar sharing, etc.

I originally tried it out just for testing, but I find it much
easier/faster than my managing my own hosting.

I was planning to evaluate devical, but have not tried it yet:
http://www.davical.org/

I would welcome comments from anyone with experience with devical.

Here's a feature comparison of several calendar implementation, though 
it looks a little old, based on the versions listed for the various 
packages.
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Calendar:QA_CalDAV_Support

I know you asked primarily about calendar servers, but I just thought 
I'd mention the mailserver that I use.

For everything else, I currently run 
http://www.tummy.com/Products/vpostmaster/ which I like very much.  It 
does not have any kind of calender or contact support, but that can be 
added seperately.  It uses postfix for the underlying mail transport 
which is very solid and has extensive capability for managing spam 
attacks and supports many plugins.  Vpostmaster implements greylisting, 
spf checking, spamassasin, clamav, white/black listing.  It uses the 
postgres database.  Oh and it also has support for unlimited virtual 
domains. It includes dovecot pop/imap support and squirrelmail webmail 
interface.

The GUI is quite user friendly and spam control parameters can be 
customized on a per user/mailbox basis.  It's probably most suitable for 
small to medium size organizations due to the cost of many features 
implemented in python, though with postfix as the underlying transport,  
preliminary spam control features, rbl checks, connection rate limiting 
etc, can easily be implemented at the postfix level. (If a site has big 
problems with spam attacks, it is desirable to stop them as early as 
possible, since running lots of python or perl code on huge amounts of 
spam can bring a server to its knees.)  There is already support in the 
gui to manage parameters which might be read from the database by 
postfix or a another plugin.

A basic install can be done by invoking the installation script on a 
clean install of CentOS in about 3 minutes.  I support about 60 mail  
users running it in a VMware virtual machine.
