Apple hasn't provided source for it's iCal app, and Palm certainly hasn't provided source for the syncer program that goes from a Palm Pilot to the MacOS X, so this is still just as bad as syncing to Palm Desktop on a windows box then outputting in comma-delimited, then pulling that into Horde (or equivalent) Ted ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

You can find tightvnc in the ports. Tightvnc has a small web server that allows access to your desktop from a remote internet browser. Unfortunately, this does not facilitate remote syncing of your palm device. To view tightvnc from a web browser, point your url to your desktop machine using port 5800 + the display number. Example: I sync my palm pilot using the jpilot port. I invoke tightvnc on display 1 on my desktop at hostname.com using: vncserver :1 To run my desktop from a remote browser, I would point my browser to: http://hostname.com:5801 Then I run jpilot on my desktop. I hope this helps. Andrew Gould ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Re: web calendar program recommendation
What you're needing is a system, and not a single piece of software. I would focus on the icalendar calendaring format. Once you have that, then pick the piece of software you want to run on your local machine to sync against your palm, and have it publish your calendar to a webdav share or similar, then pick your piece of web calendaring software to manage that calendar from the web. I have used phpicalendar, but last I looked it still did not support creating new items. Perhaps Horde does?
