The following might be worth a look: http://www.usenix.org/publications/library/proceedings/lisa-nt98/full_papers/limoncelli/limoncelli_html/limoncelli.html PDF version: http://www.usenix.org/publications/library/proceedings/lisa-nt98/full_papers/limoncelli/limoncelli.pdf A bit dated, but still contains much relevant information. In 1998, the author of the above paper selected Netscape Calendar Server (now iPlanet?) for calendaring because it was expected to follow open standards and protocols better than the more proprietary alternatives (such as Exchange, Groupwise, and Lotus Notes). No idea whether iPlanet can sync with PDAs, though. -- Joel Schneider Jazz - jazz88fm.com joel at joelschneider.net ISEE - www.i-see.org
