Create new calendar via CalDAV

This is just a note on a helpful command to create a CalDAV calendar on Apple's calendarserver:

curl -X MKCALENDAR -u <username>:<password> https://caldav.fladi.at/calendars/users/<username>/newcalendar/

Mozilla Lightning lacks the functionality to create new calendars, so this is a somewhat geekish workaround.

Groupwise & Cacti

It's finally done, I put together graphs of all the data I could pull out of the various HTTP management interfaces used by the Novell Groupwise agents (POA, MTA, IA and WEBAC). Their HTML output was obviously never meant to be parsed by a script (proper XHTML anyone?) but I think that I can now provide the most essential data of a Groupwise deployment in a Cacti-compatible way.

Thus I present grpwise4cacti, a collection of various graphs for import into Cacti and the accompanying PHP Script Server part for quick and painless data-gathering over HTTP.

There is a tarball available for download: grpwise4cacti-0.2.tar.bz2

The included README file outlines the way to incorporate the graphs into your Cacti installation. There is also a page at the official Cacti wiki.
