How do I publish a Shared iCal Calendar on my Windows XP?

 

The first step is to download and install Sunbird by Mozilla on your computer. Use the following link to read more about and download Sunbird.  http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/sunbird

You will need the address to a server that has been setup to do iCal sharing. You will need a username and password for the server. Contact your BLTC or Technology Training Staff for this information.

From Sunbird on a client computer:

Open Sunbird. From the menu, Choose File > Publish Calendar.


Choose the calendar you wish to publish:

Correct the name of your calendar if necessary.


Enter the URL for the site configured on the server.

(such as "http://196.196.0.1/AnySchoolCal/")

*Parts of the URL for Private Server

http:// (always start with this) IP number of your web server */(folder for Calendar sharing)/

Usernames and Passwords
Enter the name and password for a calendar user that was enabled on the server.  Contact your BLTC or Technology Training Staff for this information.  Click OK.


You should recieve a message that your calendar has successfully published.


*REMEMBER: The web server must be set up for serving a Calendar before you can share calendars. Contact your BLTC or Technology Training Staff for this information.
