To Enable Wildcard LDAP Searches of Calendar Properties

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 parameter as shown in the following table:

   Parameter

   Description and Default Value

   service.calendarsearch.ldap. primaryownersearchfilter

   The default search filter used for search_calprops searches for exact matches to the search string. To allow wildcard searches such that matches are found when the search string is merely contained within the property value, uncomment this parameter. This enables the system to use the following search filter: "(&(|(uid=*%s*)(cn=*%s*)) (objectclass=icsCalendarUser))" Enabling this search filter can negatively impact performance.

5. Save the file as ics.conf.

6. Restart Calendar Server.
