[Cialug] Evolution and iCal

[Stuart Thiessen]

I ran into an interesting problem last night. I was trying to set up 
Evolution on the Ubuntu laptop. I have a Mac Mini that is our family 
computer. My wife keeps her calendar and email on that. I have set up 
Apache on there so she can publish her iCal calendars on there and I 
can use my work laptop which is a Mac to subscribe to her calendars at 
home and keep our schedules clear. I also publish my work calendar to 
the same place so my wife can subscribe to my calendar. I set it up to 
be authenticated, so they could not be downloaded by just anyone who 
had access to our home network.

Well, I thought Evolution should be able to handle this since it 
supports the iCalendar standard. This is my first time using Evolution. 
But when I use Evolution to connect to the calendars using CalDAV, it 
will make the connection, but the subscribed calendars remain unchecked 
and their data is unavailable. This is Evolution 2.8. Any ideas besides 
removing authentication :) ? Other iCal unauthenticated calendars 
available from iCalShare.com work just fine.

Thanks,

Stuart
