share carddav account (baikal)


Hi everyone,
we are using a baikal server in our office to manage our calendars. I configured the calendar share like it is written here:

https://publications.jbfavre.org/web...p-fpm-nginx.en

We all want to use the same addressbook in thunderbird (and no other addressbook). So my question is: Is it possible to share addressbooks in baikal?

I also tried to create a new user in baikal that is only used for addresses. But Thunderbird won't connect to the server with two different usernames. (personal username for calendar and address username for contacts)

The Server is running with debian 8.

Thanks
Effman

I Solved my problem a bit different.
I created a user "addresses" and 3 users for me and my collegues. Let's call them "user1", "user2", "user3".

I gave the user "addresses" the right to access every calendar, read and write.

In Thunderbird/Lightning i added a calendar "user1". As username and password I entered the user "addresses". Next i added "user2" and "user3" calendar without getting asked for a password. (since Thunderbird uses the known "addresses" user.)

After installing SoGo extension I added the remote addressbook - again thunderbird used the known "addresses" user.

That way everyone is using the same addressbook and it's also possible to add the calendar on other devices with the personal user password.
