I don't think switching operating systems is a viable route at work, anyway.

Thanks y'all.

I haven't messed with it but I think it does.  The biggest difference being
that it's open source.  They have made the source code available on
sourceforge.  Not that I'm a big enough geek to do anything with it.  I'm
also pretty sure Ray will never touch a Mac.  But there are several products
built around the same standard, many for Windows so Ray can find his
solution and keep his integrity.

Seems like iCal Server has more or less the same set of features as Windows
Sharepoint Services has.

there are several products out there that use a standard protocol.  Apple
Xserve is the biggest name that comes to mind that uses it but there are
lots of others out there.  it's the CalDAV standard.  Google that and you
shoudl find lots of hits

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
