Fair enough, Chuck.

I don't know exactly what writes the file, but since we are using the
Lightning add-on from Thunderbird, I would assume that Lightning is doing
the work.

As far as how it used to work, everyone would read from the .ics calendar on
the old server from Lightning via a web link.  Those with the proper access
were able to write to it for adding/updating/deleting calendar entries.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the feedback.  It seems that this is a
little more involved than I thought, which is fine.  I see there are
open-source alternatives, so I will pursue those.

It's all good.  Thanks again.

Dean
