ProcedureTo Configure Calendar Server for Proxy Authentication

To configure Calendar Server to accept proxy authentication, you edit the Calendar Server configuration file with a text editor. You also run configuration commands in the command line.

Steps
  1. Change directory to the Calendar Server directory:


    cd /etc/opt/SUNWics5/config
  2. Open the ics.conf file in a text editor.

    Find each of the following properties and make the changes described. In some cases this means changing the value and uncommenting the line. In other cases, it simply means uncommenting the line.

    1. Locate the service.http.allowadminproxy property. Make sure it is uncommented. Make sure its value is set to yes:

      service.http.allowadminproxy=yes”

    2. Locate the service.admin.calmaster.cred property. Make sure it is uncommented. Make sure its value is set to password.

      service.admin.calmaster.cred=”password”

    3. Locate the service.admin.calmaster.userid property. Make sure it is uncommented. Make sure its value is set to calmaster:

      service.admin.calmaster.userid=”calmaster”

    4. Save and close the ics.conf file.

  3. Change directory to the Calendar Server directory.


    cd /opt/SUNWics5/cal/sbin
  4. Run the command to stop Calendar Server.


    ./stop-cal
  5. Run the command to restart Calendar Server.


    ./start-cal

    The startup process displays a series of startup messages. The startup process might take a few moments. When startup is complete, the following message is displayed:


    Calendar services were started.

    You have configured Calendar Server for proxy authentication.
