yup very simple... the company wide calendar you have a few choices on how to set it up. 1. just create a user account and delegate it out. 2. create it as a resource and delegate it out. You can either setup the delegation inside the accounts.xml file or using ical. I have to say ical 10.6 (snow leopard) works much better at handling delegates etc. On the iphone you'll have to create multiple accounts (using same credentials), one for each delegate you want to see, you then change the URL to point to the delegate. > Do I need a specific release (build) version of the DCS to accomplish this? > nope I think any current (ish) release will work fine. > Is the accounts.xml rewritten by the server when a user assigns a new > delegate in iCal? > nope never written to again. Only read, and seems to only be read on start up, so any changes you make to it will require a restart to update :( --Guy > Why is accounts.xml as it is?
