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.
