Not with the current code. With the current code base you need two  
distinct horde base installations. One for the webclient that carries  
the different modules like imp, ingo, kronolith, nag etc.. And the  
second one for fbview. This one only needs to carry the kronolith  
module.

The reason why you need two is basically only that the fbview login  
directly throws you on the fbview page. Installing a complete horde  
code base just for that is of course insane but it has always been  
this way and so far there was no time to change it.

The solution I imagine is to write a small horde application module  
that does the special kolab login. Currently you can select different  
views when logging in. We would simply add fbview there as an  
additional option.

Cheers,

Gunnar
