I use Windows Sharepoint Services (WSS) v3 at home, and set it as the default
page that opens when you open IE, specifically the calendar. Furthermore, the
calendar from WSS can be linked to your own Outlook.
 
Gives you sort of what you need I guess. It depends on how you look at this,
WSS is sort of a client/server solution but it's also web-based which you
specifically asked for not to recommend. It's all in the eye of the beholder.
At least this falls in under "one central calendar that multiple clients can
access".
 
HTH.

Hi list,

 

Aside from Exchange and web-based things like Google's, does anyone know of
any client/server calendar apps?  A friend of mine uses a program called
Calendar Scope and recommends it.  There is a corporate version that would
allow me to have one central calendar that multiple clients can access.  This
would be ideal for me, since most of my computer-time is spent at work, but I
want to maintain my personal calendar info at home.  So, I was going to set it
up at home and open up access over the Internet so that I could access the
same info while away from home.  But, I cannot even download trial software.
These idiots who make this software make you go through a contact process in
order to get TRIAL software (this server version).  I did all that, and a week
has passed without any follow-up from the automated "You will hear from us in
1-2 business days" response.  So, now I'm looking for something else.

 

Please don't recommend anything that is web-based.

 

Thanks,

 

Ray
