Hi Gerhard,

1: Yeah, for some very strange reason, Apple has choosen to make an Enterprise calendar server that will not work in an enterprise environment. Seems they don't think it's important to keep the featureset of standalone iCal functionality in a corporate environment. I would like to know where that one and only - very lonely - company exists, that never invite customers or partners to a meeting, is. iCal Server 1.x seems to have a featureset that only allows you to invite people in the Directory (OD or XML based). From what I can read from the 10.6 road map, version 2 will add the exiting new feature of being able to handle 3.th. party attendees to events... so, we are all left in our own internal meeting loop for the next year. I can see for me, the Dilbert strip...

Sorry if I sound a bit negative in this regard, but we have more than one custumer that are 'b bit pissed' over this situation, as the 10.4 version did all they needed, and now that are actually set back on feature set, in order to see each others availability... bad move Apple... !



2: Delegation, as far as I know, Only works with Open Directory based accounts. iCal does not know how to use XML based accounts. You NEED to have an OD set up in Directory Utility for this to work.

Hope it helps,

Hi there,

I'm running CalendarServer in the latest Version on my iMac for
testing. Most is fine. May goal was to have in my calendar in ical the
appointments both on my iMac and MacBook. Well and some other
Calendars for resources. If I make new Appointment in the normal
calendar (not stored on CalDAV) I can invite attendees without
problem. If I start to type I get people out of the adressbook and
mail sends perfect. But the first problem is when I schedule an
appointment with 3 people from my company I have to type the email
address like it is in teh accounts.xml that CalendarServer will notice
them. If I just type the name or ID nothing will happen. The next
problem is that I can't sent to an attendee from outside. Even if I
drag an drop the vcard to my server based calendar. In the terminal I
get a message that there was an error during post.

I don't want to have to keep for one appointment 2 records one in the
normal iCal calendar and one in the server based one. What do I wrong
- or is it just not possible what I want?

The next problem is that I want to delegate a calendar for reading to
another person. It looks like it dosn't work with iCal. Is there an
other way?

Thank you for you help in advance!

Kind Regards

Gerhard
