We had the occasion to setup shared calendaring for our office. Here is a quick to-do list:
Prerequisites:
- Server must be a full Open Directory system (not standalone)
Basic Steps:
- Setup DNS name for calendar: ical.networkjack.info
- Setup iCal Server on OS X Server, including setting up vhost for calendar
- Turn on Calendaring (in Advanced tab in Workgroup Manager) for all users who will be calendar
Client Setup (Mac OS X 10.5)
- Add server as a Directory using Directory Utility, so that you can search
- Add account for iCal Server within iCal (Prefs -> Accounts)
- username : password
- ical.networkjack.info:8008
- Setup delegation to other users (this is where the Directory comes in)
That should be it for the most part.
