Guy-
I had tried this a while ago, but failed and gave up. But it's been
nagging me ever since. HOW do you delegate out the company-wide
calendar?
Thanks
Conrad

Hello!
I am new to this list and interested in running the Darwin Calendar
Server for a small company.
We'd need a setup like this:
4 user accounts:
1 boss
1 secretary
2 employees
Have 1 personal calendar for each of the 4 users.
1 company wide shared group calendar where all of the 4 persons
have read/write access.
The secretary has read/write access to boss’ personal calendar.
Calendar Clients are Apple iCal from 10.5. and 10.6 as well as the
iPhone client.
My questions are (after installing DCS and playing with
accounts.xml):
How do I configure above scenario? Is it possible at all?
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 :(

Why is accounts.xml as it is? I'd expect a calendar server to have
calendars as first class objects. Instead, there are users which
seem to have one (one one?) implicit calendar.
Thanks,
Dirk
