If I remember correctly, a combination of "user + uri" selects the data,
so that users don't share each others' data - unless you have found a
way around that.

Each SyncML user has access to all uris, with his own data behind it. At
least that's typically the case for a multi-user server like Funambol.
SyncEvolution is different.

Right.

"calendar2" is the name of the local source config. Better stop thinking
about it as "the name of the local config.ini", that's an implementation
detail.

"database" is the property name.

"<calendar name>" is the local database name, as printed by
"syncevolution" without parameters, so *not* calccc.

See http://syncevolution.org/documentation/syncevolution-usage for the
terminology and the command line syntax.

"calccc" would go here.

You should have ~/.config/syncevolution/default and beneath it entries
for shared source definitions and peers, one of them "funambol". The
example you are giving is out-dated, please don't create config files
like that. Better start from scratch and let the command line create the
right files.
