Hi, Felix

I believe the settings you need are here:

http://trac.calendarserver.org/wiki/chandlerscreen2

However, with the Leopard release of their server, Apple chose to  
require digest HTTP authentication to log in to the server, which  
Chandler doesn't support. So, with the standard configuration of the  
Apple server, you will get some kind of permissions failure trying to  
connect using your account. I'm assuming there's a way to change the  
server configuration so that regular old Basic HTTP authentication  
will work, but I have no idea how to do that :(.
