I rsh from my Linux system to a Solaris system and run 'cm' (Calendar
Manager), sending it back to my display.  I love this program--it's a
networked calendar manager that allows you to view others' calendars,
them to view yours, you to add entries to theirs, etc., locally or
across the network (all subject to user-configurable permissions of
course).

Unfortunately, I've never seen it in source form, as I'm pretty sure
that Sun considers it and its corresponding daemon quite proprietary.
If you've got a Sun on your local network though, it's a quite usable
solution, IMHO.  (There's also a SunOS 4.x version.)
