Ah, ok. All right.

Not yet. Horde has just a webdav interface. However, in theory it
should not be too difficult to adjust the plugin to the needs of 
a webdav only server.

Well, of course, I am after a groupware solution.  I have been
looking for such a setup for years, now.  Currently, I prefer
a solution that is as simple as possible, accessible via
widespread standards, and via different, redundant ways
in case of any problems, for which I have absolutely no time
in everyday life.  So nothing special, nothing proprietary,
nothing windows-specific, not too-complicated, written in
something I could fix by myself, in case of emergency...

Maybe a CALDAV server is such a thing.  It would also offer
vcards.  Not sure about syncml, but a patch is said to be
available for davical, if I am not mistaken.

Other CALDAV servers are cosmo (chandler project), or bedework.

I am not sure about the kolab server used by the horde project.
Adding caldav support would not be too much work... Although,
it is a bit more complicated, than I have implemented in the
caldav plugin.  So the plugin is in a very early stage... ;-)

And the client side: evolution/evolution-data-server,
sunbird/thunderbird, webcal, iCal, iPhone etc.

So, maybe, some CALDAV server with or without an LDAP server
and a Kerberos server is it? We well see...

Bye, bye
