Golden Triangle with Snow Leopard for iCal Server

[churnd]

I’m planning on upgrading my Tiger Xserve to Snow Leopard soon. The server is primarily a file server (AFP & SMB ), but I hope to be able to use it as an iCal server as well. I’ve googled for any possible issues with this setup, and it seems that “Augmented Users” are having trouble. What is an augmented user? Has anyone else done this?

I’ve got SL server set up and working correctly with the Golden Triangle setup. All services are working as expected except iCal Server. I can create an OD user and that user can use Ical Server as expected, but when I import an AD user to add his/her augmented record, I keep getting denied when I try to use iCal server as that user. Is there something else I need to do?

The error when I try to create a calendar is:

2010-01-08 10:45:27-0500 [-] [caldav-8009] [AMP,client] [calendarserver.provision.root#info] Unauthenticated users not enabled with the ‘calendar’ SACL

Also, it seems like proper DNS setup is required for iCal to properly detect the iCal server settings. My server doesn’t provide DNS, and our DNS admin won’t create the additional record needed.

Is there a way to detect the proper settings without this?

Just to jump in on this, I’m trying to bind a 10.6 stand alone server into our 10.5 OD/AD setup to run as an iCal server. When I bind the 10.6 server into the OD the apple-serviceinfo attribute is not created in the Computer record so I can’t enable calendaring. I think that I had the same issue when I was testing a 10.5 calendar server – but I can’t remember how I resolved it!

Has anyone come across this issue? Can you create the attribute manually? If so, where do I find the service GUIDs?

I did more testing and saw that an OD user had no issue creating a calendar on the iCal server, so the issue is specific to the AD users. I did notice, however, that the OD user could log into the web interface once, but trying again a second time didn’t work. I was able to log into the web interface as diradmin.
