"To complete the procedure you should load the
http://localhost/webcal into a Web browser. The Web installation is
a four-step process, ending with you logged into the WebCalendar
interface as the admin user. Step 1 of the install process asks you
to set a settings.php password and then log in with it. In step 2
you give the type and location of the database you want WebCalendar
to use. In step 3 you are offered a button to install the database
schema, and step 4 asks you for the server URL, providing a guess
based on how you are currently accessing the site. It prompts for
which authentication you want to use, and whether a default admin
account should be created. If you select the latter option, you
should log in and change the admin password as your first action.
Authentication can be done in many ways: through WebCalendar itself
doing database username and password lookups, HTTP-auth, NIS, LDAP,
or IMAP.
"WebCalendar lets you define views that combine the calendar
granularity (day, week, month) and layout (horizontal, vertical,
timebar) with a selection of which user's calendar you wish to see
in the view.
"You can also add another user's calendar to your own as a
layer. You can specify a color for each layer, and have WebCalendar
display an event only once even if it appears on multiple layers.
For example, if you are viewing holidays for the USA and UK, events
like Christmas Day will appear in both calendars, but you only want
to see them once."
