The HDA has a Calendar server ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebDAV WebDAV]) enabled by default in Amahi 6 (Ubuntu 12.04.x).
# A client calendar program
# The publishing location or URL
# The calendar name of your choice, typically Home, John, etc.
In addition, you can also install a "client" application to browse calendars in your HDA, like [http://www.amahi.org/apps/icalendar iCalendar] Calendars can be created with widely available clients such as:* [http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/ical/ Apple iCal] for Mac OS X.* [OutlookSynchttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Sunbird Sunbird] ([[Mozilla_Sunbird|Tutorial]])* [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/projects/calendar/ Thunderbird - Lightning Calendar]* [http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/ MS Outlook synchronization support!]* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Calendar Windows Calendar] for Windows Vista.* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandler_%28software%29 Chandler]* ... and many others. Technically, the HDA has a WebDAV server, commonly used for sharing online calendars and other files. <u>IMPORTANT:</u> Only one calendar publisher is supported per calendar. '''NOTE:''' Some clients may require that the name have the ical extension, e.g. Home.ics; you may need to experiment.
== Publishing URL ==
The publishing URL for the calendar is
<u>Fedora</u><br />
<nowiki>http://ical/<CalendarName></nowiki>.
The <nowiki><CalendarName></nowiki> part maybe Home, or Home.ics (try this last one first).
Some clients, notably Sunbird, require that the name of the calendar have the ical extension (which is '''.ics'''), e.g. Home.ics. You may need to experiment with this until it works. If you calendar client asks for a username and password, use your normal login details. Please add your experiences in this page.
Names with spaces are supported.
== Accessing the Calendar ==
We have one application called [http://www.amahi.org/apps/icalendar iCalendar] that needs to be installed if you want to browse calendars in your hda via a web interface. Please note that this app is a '''read only''' client. It cannot create calendar entries.
The url for accessing the calendar is:
<nowiki>http://icalendar</nowiki>
The url for setting the calendar preferences page is:
<nowiki>http://icalendar/preferences.php</nowiki>
