Well, an error message would have been really helpful, as my mind-
reading skills aren't yet up to snuff... :-)
I must confess I was setting you straight simply on the basis of
Cyrus's instructions. Trying it for real shows the exact behaviour you
and Louis describe. The server will continuously read the accounts
file and fail, until it is properly configured. I'm running DCS under
OS X 10.5.1 Server and the critical piece of log is:
(DCS 1.0 = rev 1995) ValueError: <auto-schedule> element only allowed
for Resources and Locations: proxies
(DCS trunk = rev 2019) exceptions.ValueError: <auto-schedule> element
only allowed for Resources and Locations: proxies
Which suggest (although <auto-schedule/> is not used here) that the
<proxies> element cannot be used for users or groups. Adding <auto-
shedule/> for testing purposes makes it complain about this instead.
I guess we need the DCS folks to chime in here.
Regarding iCal's (3.0.1 = rev 1205) behavior with DCS, I've found that
it will detect me as a proxy member (even through a group, see
example) for a resource through its native interface, so need to go
through steps 4-6 in this case - just check the approprate resources
under Accounts -> Delegation and a "DELEGATES" header will appear in
the main window.

Also note that as soon as I comment out the proxies belonging to
these two users, I can startup the server again...
Thanks in advance for your help here!

Hey Joe,
You've confused the sample accounts file where locations have
delegates (which is normal), with cyrus's example. You now have
users and locations with duplicate uid's which is definitely not
what you intended :-)
Here's what your accounts.xml file should look like (but c.f. the
previous discussion on the use of the guid field):
<user>
<uid>userA</uid>
<guid>userA</guid>
<password>password</password>
<name>user A</name>
<proxies>
<member type="users">userB</member>
</proxies>
</user>
<user>
<uid>userB</uid>
<guid>userB</guid>
<password>password</password>
<name>user B</name>
<proxies>
<member type="users">userA</member>
</proxies>
</user>
Hmmm... setting up my accounts-test.xml file results in the server
not being able to startup (I could paste in the error if helpful,
but it is quite long)
I have taken out my locations I have defined, and modifed my users
declarations to match the following:
<user>
<uid>joe</uid>
<guid>joe</guid>
<password>mypassword</password>
<name>Joe Auty</name>
<proxies>
<member type="users">test</member>
</proxies>
</user>
<user>
<uid>test</uid>
<guid>test</guid>
<password>mypassword</password>
<name>Joe Auty (test)</name>
<proxies>
<member type="users">joe</member>
</proxies>
</user>

Then follow steps 4-6 below. Note that using iCal server (or DCS
w/ OD directory service I presume), iCal let's a user define
delgates for himself from within iCal, as well as lets the
delegate see calendars for which he is the delegate.

Finally had time to test this, but this doesn't seem to work...
here are the your instructions again, Cyrus, as well as my
results...

OK, here are some step-by-step instructions for setting up
delegates:
Example add user 'A' as a delegate/proxy for user 'B'.
1) In the accounts.xml, locate the user 'B' account entry.
2) Add a <proxies> element to user B entry if one is not already
present.
3) Inside the <proxies> element add an element for user 'A'
thusly:
<member type="users">A</member>
replace 'A' with the actual user id.
4) In your web browser, navigate to /principals/users/B
(substituting the user id for B). Copy the principal-URL value
you see there (it will start with /principals/__uids__/).
5) In iCal create a new CalDAV account. For the user id enter
user A's user id. For the password use user A's password. Expand
down the 'Server Options" section and enter the principal-URL
value for user B into the Account URL field. Then click Add.
6) After that the calendars for user B will appear in iCal. Note
that this is being accessed by user A (i.e. using user A's login/
password). So user B's login/password is kept private to them.
User A will have full read-write access to user B's calendar data.
Okay, I have 3 accounts configured in iCal now:
1) my account (user A)
2) my test account (user B)
3) the account you requested me to create here using the username
and password for user A, and the following server address:
https://mydomain:8443/principals/__uids__/test/
I have setup delegation for user A so that I can access user B
using the delegation tab in the iCal GUI
Here is my accounts XML file:
<user>
<uid>userA</uid>
<guid>userA</guid>
<password>password</password>
<name>user A</name>
</user>
<user>
<uid>userB</uid>
<guid>userB</guid>
<password>password</password>
<name>user B</name>
</user>
<user>
<location>
<uid>userA</uid>
<password>password</password>
<name>user A</name>
<auto-schedule/>
<proxies>
<member type="users">userB</member>
</proxies>
</location>
<location>
<uid>userB</uid>
<password>password</password>
<name>user B</name>
<auto-schedule/>
<proxies>
<member type="users">userA</member>
</proxies>
</location>
The result: no noticeable change. I was expecting that anything
I'd write to the delegate calendar would be available under user
B's calendar and vice versa.
Have I done something wrong here?
