On the server I imported my calendar  then made sure that I had waited until 
the calendar had been saved.  I then tried to access it from the client box.  
No success.

I can't even find the kolab wizard.

Meanwhile, on the client box I have got something totally messed up now.  I 
can't even reach the on-line imap account.  I'm constantly seeing, on both 
client and server, "The connection to the server dimap was unexpectedly 
closed or timed out. It will be re-established automatically if possible." 
and "The connection to the server Borg2 IMAP Account was unexpectedly closed 
or timed out. It will be re-established automatically if possible".  It looks 
like an authentication problem, but I can't see why.  The server's on-line 
imap uses no encryption and clear text password.  This never happened before 
today.

I have tried deleting the dimap accounts on both and re-creating them.  I've 
tried removing them altogether.  The problem persists.  I'm even getting 
the "The connection to the server Borg2 IMAP Account was unexpectedly closed" 
messages on the server after I have closed the client's kmail and removed the 
dimap account.
