The setup for CalDAV Murder is the same as for IMAP. Run httpd processes on both the frontend and backend servers. httpd will proxy the requests to the proper backend. CMU is currently doing this for RSS access to shared mailboxes on our production Murder and I have been using CalDAV on our test Murder for well over a year. That being said, I can't guarantee that CalDAV auto-scheduling will work between users on different backends. Best-case, the backend server will send an email, worst-case it will fail to store the scheduling object. I haven't done a lot of scheduling testing in a Murder environment yet. I might have to rework the scheduling code so that the frontend machine directs the traffic to various backends. -- Kenneth Murchison Principal Systems Software Engineer Carnegie Mellon University ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
