Yes. Several times. When I first started looking into this and Linux after a 
little trial and error and much research I did get the server running, could 
connect via iCal and two iPhones. This was on my test box. Now I'm building 
abox that host the CalendarServer, afp file sharing and a partition for Time 
Machine backups. I have yet to be able to recreate a working CalendarServer. 
I've used trunk and it appears ro install and latch the server but I cannot 
connect to any calendars or even see the catalog.

It was suggested that I use the last stable release to put in to use with the 
clients that use it because it is more stable than trunk. Let me also that I am 
a total Jeanie to Linux.
