[Webcalendar] webcal conversion

[Rob Janssen]

Lucy,

I think no conversion should be required (but I am not sure as I never 
did such a migration).
Yes, the passwd and log files should be in the spool directory.
However, what may be the problem is that Linux uses case-sensitive names 
for files, and Windows doesn't.
So, when you type the username make sure that you type it in the same 
case as it appears in the passwd file and the spool directory.

When you can create users you may consider to create a user, make it the 
administrator (in the config file) and re-set the passwords for other users.
Of course do this only when no other solutions appear to work, or when 
there are only a few calendars....
