Hi everyone
I posted before here. I'll try once more but don't want to get over bearing.
I'm trying to self host all my contacts and my calendar.
I've managed to install radicale but there very little ui and I'm not actually sure how to import my contacts and calendar, or how to start using it with a client.
This is all I see
I've set up the calendar and contacts server but I can't find any security settings to password protect it
Any guidance would be awesome, thank you

The options to password protect it are in the (usually
/etc/radicale/)configfile under[auth].For proper security you could use
type = htpasswdhtpasswd_filename = /etc/radicale/usershtpasswd_encryption = bcryptthen create a users file with apache tools (
htpasswd -c -B users User1) or one of the million online htpasswd file creators.Don't generate password files online,...
... because? ... or, instead, do...?
Because if I wanted to harvest a bunch of passwords I would offer a online password generator.
Do use apache utils locally.
While you are right in general, you are just creating a file with a : line without any identifying context. So have fun searching the world for where I might have actually used it. Sounds like a really bad use of ressources to create list of passwords.
PS: Yes, as an Arch user I am still pissed that this tool is not available in the repos beside installing the complete Apache server...
