Well, I have answered my own questions. The answer to the first one is
yes. There are a number of ways to go about it. I'm still kicking it
around. The answer to the second question, which was can I remove
anonymous access and require login is also yes. Unfortunately, it looks
like KAddressbook only supports anonymous access. Is this true? I find
this hard to believe. Is there some config file directive to set this?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
