11.4 Create public calendars

To create a public calendar in Kerio MailServer, user needs corresponding access rights. These

rights can be assigned only by the Kerio MailServer administrator.

Once you have appropriate rights, you can create a public iCal calendar following the instruc-

tions provided below:

1.

Log in the Kerio WebMail interface.

2.

In Public folders, create a new calendar folder.

Note: To avoid complications with URL, It is recommended not to use special national

characters in calendar names. Use, for example, the name Calendar, to keep it easy.

3.

Read access rights are set automatically for all users under the particular domain and all

Kerio MailServer users. These rights can be changed through the context menu of the new

folder (pop-up menu Access rights).

4.

Once a new calendar folder is created, run Apple iCal.

5.

Create a new calendar that will be set as public.

6.

Publish this calendar to the folder created in Kerio MailServer. For publishing, use the

following URL pattern:

http://server_name/ical/public/folder_name

the URL may be, for example, as follows:

http://mail.company.com/ical/public/Calendar

7.

Use your browser to run Kerio WebMail and check whether the publishing has been com-

pleted successfully.
