To Enable Anonymous Access

1. Log in as an administrator with permission to change the configuration.

2. Change to the /etc/opt/SUNWics5/cal/config directory.

3. Save your old ics.conf file by copying and renaming it.

4. Edit the following parameters in the ics.conf to enable anonymous access:

   Parameters	Description and Default Value
   service.wcap.anonymous. allowpubliccalendarwrite	Enables or disables allowing anonymous access users to write to public calendars. Enable access by setting the value to "yes", which is the default.
   service.wcap.allowpublicwritablecalendars	Enables users to have publicly writable calendars. This is enabled by default (set to "yes").
   service.http.allowanonymouslogin	Enable anonymous access (login) by setting this parameter to "yes", if necessary. The default value is "yes".
   service.calendarsearch.ldap	For security purposes with anonymous logins enabled, you might want to disable searching through the LDAP first when doing calendar searches, by setting this parameter to "no", which is the default.

   ---

   Note –

   Communications Express expects the value of the service.calendarsearch.ldap parameter to be "no". This conflicts with instructions given for tuning your system for best performance in a DWP environment, (in which your database is distributed across multiple back-ends.) See Improving Calendar Search Performance in a DWP Environment.

5. Save the file as ics.conf.

6. Restart Calendar Server.
