4.4.2 Adding Calendars
IMPORTANT: Groupware Calendars
The best way to add groupware resources is with Groupware Wizard, a separate
tool. To use it, close Kontact then run
groupwarewizard
in a command line
or from the Office group of the KDE menu. Select the server type, such as
SLOX, GroupWise, or Exchange, from the list offered then enter the address
and authentication data. The wizard adds the available resources to Kontact.
The calendar module can connect to multiple calendars simultaneously. This is useful,
for example, to combine a personal calendar with an organizational one. To add a new
calendar, click Add then select the calendar type. Complete the necessary fields.
The check boxes in front of the calendars show the activation status of each. To prevent
the display of a calendar without deleting it, uncheck it. Remove deletes the selected
calendar from the list.
4.5 Syncing Data with a Handheld
Kontact is designed so its data can be synced with handheld devices, such as a Palm.
View information about the status of KPilot in the summary. Refer to
Chapter 6, Syn-
chronizing a Handheld Computer with KPilot (page 131) for information about config-
uring and using KPilot.
4.6 Kontact for GroupWise Users
If you are used to working in GroupWise, you should have very little trouble adjusting
to Kontact. The two programs share many concepts and provide many of the same
services. This section discusses notable terminology differences, as well as some tips
to help GroupWise users make the most of Kontact.
