calender, contacts, appts., to do list, etc. server for Debian
 

Hi,

I am playing around with the idea of installing a calender server on a
Debian machine at my home.

The idea is that the family can maintain their calenders, appointments,
schedules and to-do lists on the server and be able to access it from
anywhere over the internet.

Now if the server allows syncing to mobile devices, that would be an
added bonus but is not required at present.

Any ideas what we have in this respect in Debian? Experiences and
insights will be most welcome.

Regards.

I"ve used egroupware, and I think there is phpgroupware, a
fork. Tthose a pretty heavy solutions, but they work.

I did an apt-cache search for groupware and found these:
citadel, egroupware and phpgroupware.

Further, based on these I did a google search and found these:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_collaborative_software#Open_source_or_free _software

This is a fairly good starting points. I wonder how the three that I
mentioned above compare among each other.

Regards.

Hi all,

i use Group-Office, and i think that's a good solution.
Task, Email, Address Book, Calendar, Notes and a file repository.

Sync with mobile is available only on Enterprise edition.
It's also quite easy to customize.

I have recently started using Chandler (http://chandlerproject.org/)
and I find it useful. You can install a server on your network or you
can use their server (chandler hub).

I have client software on my Macbook, as well as on a PC at home and
my laptop at work. I use Ical on the Macbook to subscribe to the data
on the Chandler server and from their I can sync it to my mobile
phone.

Regards
Johann

I'm using davical[1] both at work and home (two seperate installations) and
it's working quite well for me...

I basically followed the instructions found at [2] on the davical wiki [3]
even though the instuctions were for ubuntu it was easy enough to just
install ;)
