Darn, Cyrus beat me to it :-) As has been noted before, you can also use this as the subscription URL for older clients (even Outlook). E.g. http://your.server.com:8008/calendars/users/mark/calendar Note the absence of a traing slash or you will get permission problems, at least in iCal. If you prefer, I believe you can also perform "dumps" of calendar collections to .ics file directly in the file system, e.g. # cat <DCS data root>/calendars/users/mark/calendar/* > /somewhere/ else/marks_calendar.ics Although some users may have privacy issues with that. /Emil _______________________________________________ calendarserver-users mailing list calendarserver-users@lists.macosforge.org http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/calendarserver-users
