CorporateTime Calendar

Client Software

If you are using a departmentally supported linux or windows machine, the software should already be installed. On a linux machine, you can start CorprateTime by running /usr/local/bin/ctime. The windows client should appear under the Start menu; go to Start->All Programs->CorporateTime and run the CorporateTime client. Your machine must be behind the firewall or connected to the department via the VPN in order to connect to the calendar server.

To use the web client, point your favorite web browser to http://ctime.cs.brown.edu. The web client is accessible both inside and outside of the departmental firewall.

If you work on an unsupported machine and would like a copy of the client software, please send an email to problem.
