This post describes how to create shared calendars between two users in Zimbra 5.0
In this example, the administrator designates a mount point to userA@example.com for the calendar to userB@example.com account for which he will have read/write permissions.
As user zimbra do the following
zmmailbox mbox> adminAuthenticate -u https://server.example.com:7071 admin@example.com password mbox> selectMailbox userB@example.com mailbox: userB@example.com, size: 1.44 GB, messages: 20868, unread: 2564 getAllFolders Id View Unread Msg Count Path ---------- ---- ---------- ---------- ---------- 1 conv 0 0 / 10 appo 0 0 /Calendar 14 mess 0 0 /Chats 7 cont 0 0 /Contacts 720 mess 0 0 /Deleted Messages 6 mess 0 0 /Drafts 2 mess 11 1010 /Inbox 901 conv 0 0 /Journal 4 mess 0 0 /Junk 900 conv 0 0 /Outbox 5 mess 0 0 /Sent 15 task 0 0 /Tasks 3 conv 0 0 /Trash
mbox userB@example.com>getFolderGrant /Calendar Permissions Type Display ----------- ------ ------- false rwidx accoun null mbox userB@example.com>modifyFolderGrant /Calendar account userA@example.com rw
mbox userB@example.com>gfg /Calendar Inherit Permissions Type Display ------- ----------- ------ ------- false rwidx accoun null false rw accoun userA@example.com
mbox userB@example.com>selectMailbox userA@example.com mailbox: userA@example.com, size: 1.12 GB, messages: 5400, unread: 860
mbox userB@example.com>createMountpoint --view appointment /userB-calendar userB@example.com /Calendar
userA@example.com should now see the calendar to userB@example.com as userB-calendar in the Calendar view.

I’ve modified my calendar and saved it as a Adobe Acrobat (PDF) document free for download. You can easily modify this calendar if you have Adobe Illustrator available or any other software that can edit PDF-files.
A possible alternative to my calendar is to use The Calendar Printing Assistant for Office Outlook 2007, an application for people who need an easy way to print and customize their Outlook 2007 calendar information.

I wanted to make a whole year calendar and found pcal, a command line tool.
pcal -F 1 -E -B -O -p -w -o 2008.ps 2008
It is also possible to generate a calendar as HTML table using the -H switch.
This program can be installed in Debian/Ubuntu
apt-get install pcal
