Instructions on enabling  Group Calendar on multi user workstations 
where the users have limited permissions. ( win 2000 / XP )

The user must have sufficient permissions (Change) in 'C:\Program Files\Group Calendar' or GroupCalendar will not work for that user. To install GroupCalendar for restricted users on a workstation do the following:

Changing permissions can be done in two ways. 

Using CACLS to change permissions.

Replace 'Users' by the User-name or Group-name that you want to give permissions to. To specify a Domain- Group, change 'Users' into 'YOURDOMAINNAME\GroupName'

/E              means  'Edit the existing Access control list'
/T              means  'Edit the rights for all files in the folder and subfolders'
/P Users:C  means  'Change the rights for the Users group into Change'

(*) to save time you can also add the command line to a text file which you save with the .bat extension (f.i. gcrights.bat). In the same batchfile you can import the registry entry if you add the following line to it: 
regedit.exe /S "\\yourserver\YourShare\group calendar for all users.reg" 

 

Using the windows GUI  to change permissions.

Open the Windows Explorer and browse to c:\Program Files\Group Calendar

Right-click on the Group Calendar folder

Choose “Sharing and Security”

Click the “ Security “ tab.

Click the “ Advanced “ button. (lower right corner).

From the list that is being displayed, select the “Users” group.

Now you are back at the list with users and groups.

 

Make sure that both check boxes are checked that say:

“ Inherit from parent ….. “  & “ Replace permission entries …..”
