Attached is a horrible hack that solves the problem. I do know you will never accept the patch as is, but other people seem to have same issue and for now, they might use this patch. Once again... horrible patch ;-)

I'd like to provide a calendar view on a semi-public terminal using a service as http://www.instantcal.com, but even with guest permissions set, a password is requested. Any chance that this gets fixed any time soon?

Hi, I would be very interested in viewing my Kronolith calendar in google calendar. Can I hope a correction soon ?

This needs to be done in the base RPC functionality.

Yes, this has to be implemented somehow.

So I can guess that you are already thinking to check guest access in rpc.php before ask for authentication, otherways rpc.php won't provide exactly the same functionality as ics.php does.

I was sure we already had a ticket for this, but I can't find it. Anyway, ics.php is going away, since it provides duplicate functionality to rpc.php, so this patch won't help.

When WebDAV is active, the subscription URL is the RPC based one. The problem here is that rpc.php allways check for users credentials, so there is no way to access an iCalendar url (.ics) even if you give guest permissions for it. I see two solutions for that: - rpc.php should check Guest Permission before ask for authentication - Give the ics.php based url like "Guest URL". The second one is faster to implement, but maybe the desirable one should be the fist. As a quick patch, calendar_info.php could check for guest permissions and offer the ics.php based url. I attach a patch to show you the idea.
