Kerio Sync Connector is a special application which enables bi-directional data synchronization between Kerio MailServer and the Apple iCal or the Apple Address Book application:
Apple iCal — Kerio Sync Connector allows bi-directional synchronization of locally stored events and To Do items.
Apple Address Book — Kerio Sync Connector enables bi-directional synchronization of locally stored contacts.
Kerio Sync Connector does not support synchronization of distribution lists.
The main benefit of Kerio Sync Connector is that the synchronization for both applications can be set at a single point.
For data synchronization, Kerio Sync Connector uses the WebDAV protocol. Therefore, HTTP and HTTPS services must be running in Kerio MailServer.
In addition to configuration of the services on the server, it is also necessary to map corresponding ports on the firewall protecting the server. Otherwise, services will not be available from the Internet (for details, see section 2.3 Firewall configuration).
Specific options for the Kerio Sync Connector are focused in the Kerio MailServer 6, User's Guide.
Disable calendar synchronization in the Kerio Sync Connector and use native calendar synchronization via CalDAV in Apple iCal (see chapter 35 CalDAV support).
