Found some spare time to read .on that thread...
And giving some coments on your discussion:

using ubuntu you can try the package ... ehm... davical?
-> check on davical.org

Creating new calendars (for a user) from lighting is as i remember not 
supported...(thats a lighting bug)
evolurion should work...

Maybe you try some background-reading o  the davical.org-wiki
a really nice place to see some how implementations work

greets

Mike

I'd like to add other calendars for myname (e.g. http://servername:8008/calendars/users/myname/workcal), but I'm
having problems. I've looked extensively and can't see any
reference to a solution.

I can't add these using a client. It won't create the new
directory in the manner that it creates the original calendar
directory.

What is "a client"?  How are you attempting to add it?

By this, I mean using either Lightning or Evolution to define a
calendar that doesn't exist yet.

When calendarserver 2.4 is first set up, the calendar directory
doesn't exist yet. Attempting to connect to the default calendar using
Evolution or Lightning triggers the creation of the directory. I
thought the same thing might happen with a second calendar, but it
doesn't.

Evolution and Lightning no doubt are buggy, but they are all that I
have. If anyone can tell me of a better one (Linux compatible) I'd be
interested.

If you can set up Calendar Server 3.0+, I'd be happy to help you diagnose the 
bad 'create' behavior on the part of these clients.  But, for all I know, it's 
a bug in the old version of calendar server, and when you try a newer version, 
it might just work.

(These clients aren't going to get any better unless people use them and report 
bugs against them though, so please do that too.)

I've also tried manually adding a directory alongside the
calendar directory and changing ownership and permissions to
match the other.

Don't do that.  The fact that the data store is a filesystem is an
accident of implementation, not something you should rely on.  (In
fact, in less ancient versions of the server, it's a database,
instead.)


At the risk of sounding like an ignorant newb, I'm going to ask, what
is the correct (or best) way to add a new calendar? Command line is
OK. I suspect that once the calendars are added correctly,
Lightning/Evolution will find them.

Creating a calendar is best accomplished via a client, the way you've been 
doing it.  You could try using a Mac as your client, since it's pretty likely 
that iCal will do something that Calendar Server 2.4 will understand.

You could also try doing a DAV request, a MKCOL with an appropriate 
DAV:resourcetype via something like curl, but if it isn't immediately obvious 
to you how to do that you probably don't want to bother with it
