share folders and buddy list

[l.aloi]

Hello,

I'm sorry for my bad english,

I would like to know if is possible for the administrator to set, for company

contacts or for some COS or lists, automatic share to calendar, documents and briefcase folders.

I also would like to know if I can automatically add in the istant messaging's

buddy list of the users of some cos all the company contacts.


Thanks in advance,

Luigi

I'm going to give a typical command-line-interface method - checkout /opt/zimbra/doc on your server for more on SOAP.

su - zimbra

So first you need to give permission:
zmmailbox -z -m sharemonkey@domain.com modifyFolderGrant /VacationDates all r

(r)ead - search, view overviews and items
(w)rite - edit drafts/contacts/notes, set flags
(i)nsert - copy/add to directory, create subfolders
action (x) - workflow actions, like accepting appointments
(d)elete - delete items and subfolders, set \Deleted flag
(a)dminister - delegate admin and change permissions

Manager - rwidx
Admin - rwidxa

You could do any of the following [account <name> |group <name> |domain <name> |all |public| guest <email> <password>] followed by the permissions like r, rw, rwixd, rwi (insert but not delete), none, etc.

Then you need to mount the shares:
zmmailbox z -m user@domain.com createMountpoint --view appointment "/Vacation Calendar" sharemonkey@domain.com /VacationDates

You might also like to vote for Bug 7473 - Share management and discovery & Bug 28152 - single-user share management UI so the users can easily see a list of what's shared to them - even if they haven't accepted/mounted it yet.
