--------------- quote -------------------
With these settings, you just have to create an ibay using server-manager and enable mod_dav for it. With you client Icalendar app (Mozilla Calendar, iCal etc.), you can create and subscribe to calendars with no login and no password just using an URL such http://yourServerName/ibayName/yourCalendarFile.ics.

Does Abody have an idea as to why this is happening

What are the permissions on your .ics file?

[pbearne]

I am not try to setup calendar I wish to use webDAV to host word docs In the same as WSS does

If conect with my file share I have read and write

Do the files need to belong to to WWW . WWW or at least be in the group??

you're certainly going to need the webuser as either the file owner of group
You can change this by typing

Code: [Select]

chown <owner>:www filename
and then the webuser will require write permission

Code: [Select]

chmod 664 filenameThis will the file owner & group read/write permissions and everybody else read
