Re: [SOGo] Configuration Options for the SOGo Connector needed
Thanks for the suggestion.It works - so I could sync my addressbook from the other Owncloud userid.The pitty is, that thunderbird apparently takes those credentials from that moment on.so all the other adressbook and various calendars residing in my main Owncloud userid won't sync afterwards.As you said - the password is transfered in plain text - so a manual once in a while sync is ok, but I do not want the autosync to regularly pass on the passwords.I therefore would expect, that the SOGo Connector does take on board the task to build in a seperate authentication methode.This Problem relates to the API between ADDONs (like the SOGo Connector) and thunderbird.This API should allow to pass on secretly the credentials of what and how to connect to.I searched in Thunderbird fora and bugzilla but did not find anything like it.So I think this should be addressed to Thunderbird as well (in Bugzilla??)

[SOGo] Configuration Options for the SOGo Connector needed
Hello Some information about my setup I use Thunderbird for mailing, calendar, contacts and tasks Lightning is the Calendar addon for Thunderbird. I also have installed an Owncloud Server, and use the CalDav Plugin to sync my various Calendars in Thunderbird with OwnCloud Server. I maintain several seperat Calendars in Thunderbird - those are added to 1(one) specific Owncloud Userid in on my cloud. Also I maintain various addressbooks in Thunderbird (both version 17 and 24) and my Owncloud Server. As there is no support for multiple address books for a single user in Owncloud, I try to sync addressbooks from different users on my OwnCloud Server with a single User in Thunderbird. I use the SOGo Connector (version 17.0.5) to sync. This does not work as expected. I guess the reason is, that the only configuration option in the SOGo Connector is to enter the CardDav Server Address. There is no option to specify the Credentials UserID and PW for the SOGo CardDav connection. I wonder anyhow, what userid is actually used by the SOGo Connector. It seems that the CardDav Connector uses the same credentials as the CaldDav addon (would it work without the CalDav Addon??) Why do I think this is the case? Well - the address book of the specific CALDav user mentioned above is syncronized without errors. So my question is: Is there a plan or workaround to add UserID and PW credentials to the CardDAV configuration options for the SOGo Plugin connector?
