The answer is simple but perhaps not obvious (from the Wiki at least :-)

The default setup of DCS allows for access through the 'localhost' network interface only. Presuming you are using the default files, you'll want to augment the references to 'localhost' and '127.0.0.1' in <somewhere>/CalendarServer/conf/caldavd-dev.plist like so:

  <key>ServerHostName</key>
  <string>your.hostname.here</string>
  [...]
  <key>BindAddresses</key>
  <array>
    <string>127.0.0.1</string>
    <string>your.ip.address.here</string>
  </array>


You can also set port numbers and other goodies here.

P.S. Kudos to the DCS team for the 1.0 release

Hello friends,

I'm trying to set up CalendarServer for use at a university, and I have it compiled and running fine on two different MacOSX10.4 machines, one MacBookPro and one G4.

However, I can't get either computer to allow external access to port 8008 or 8443. In a browser, localhost:8008 brings up the server database with no problems. And of course, the default port 80 only brings up the "You've installed Apache" page. But any use of my IP: 8008, from the same box or another one, and access is blocked.

My firewall in OSX Preferences specifically allows those two ports to be open for CalendarServer, but still they remain mysteriously inaccessible. On a webstat pinging website it came back as "Connection Closed" on that and every other port except the obvious ones (80, 21, 22).

I compiled CalendarServer with Subversion 1.4.5, Python 2.4, and basically only worried about getting the client aspects up. I haven't yet been able to get Subversion running with the latest versions of Apache and APR, although I have the latest v's of OpenSSL, libtool, neon, and I assume that the ./run -s took care of any other dependency checkouts.

Please excuse me if the answer is pathetically simple, which I'm sure it is. Regardless, I'm stumped.

Many thanks,

-Doug
