Calendars

Each Amahi server has a calendar server in it. It is meant to share calendars among the people with access the server.

To publish or subscribe to a calendar, you need two things:

  1. The publishing location or URL, http://calendar/, followed by the calendar name of your choice, such as Home, John, Kids, etc.
  2. A client calendar program

IMPORTANT: Only one calendar publisher is supported per calendar.

Outlook synchronization support!

Publishing URL

The publishing URL for the calendar is http://calendar/<CalendarName>

The <CalendarName> 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. Please add your experiences in this page.

Names with spaces are supported.

Calendar Clients
