Hi Guys Not trying to "Dob in" Chris, but I know that for the APAG VenueServer, Chris Willing has managed to run our "own" Jabber Server for the APAG Server.
I have no idea how he has managed to do this, but you might want to ask him! Anyway, just thought I would mention this... Cheers, Jason. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Rowley [mailto:andrew.row...@manchester.ac.uk] Sent: Friday, 13 March 2009 02:46 AM To: ag-t...@mcs.anl.gov Subject: Re: [AG-TECH] Spam sent to room text chat Hi, It appears that there are too many problems in the AG Toolkit Jabber client to make it work with other servers. I got it to work with openfire by changing openfire to send an id with single inverted commas instead of double ones. This lead to other issues, the main one being that it assumes that the jabber server is conference.{sub-domain}, rather than checking with the server to see what it is registered under. So jabber.mcs.anl.gov becomes conference.mcs.anl.gov without checks. Other servers don't seem to do things this way i.e. they tend to make the server conferernce.jabber.mcs.anl.gov. This is too fixed in the openfire code to change, so I have given up for now.

Perhaps the quotes were the reason. Please let me know if you need someone to test your fix. thanks Michael "If you're clear in your vision and trust the people in your team with clear objectives, they will invariably do their best to achieve everything desired, and usually deliver everything you could have hoped for and even more." -Paul Debevec ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andrew Rowley" <andrew.row...@manchester.ac.uk> To: "Natalia Costas Lago" <nata...@cesga.es>, "ag-tech" <ag-t...@mcs.anl.gov> Sent: Thursday, March 12, 2009 6:55:43 AM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: Re: [AG-TECH] Spam sent to room text chat Hi, Interestingly, I am looking at this at the moment. Unfortunately, the Jabber client in the toolkit has a bit of code that assumes that the XML attributes use single inverted commas. I am just fiddling with the Openfire jabber source code to add the appropriate bit that will hopefully make it work with single inverted commas (to avoid needing to upgrade everyone's client). I will put it somewhere when I have done and let the list know.

I have checked the jabber server the venue client uses is the following "VenueServer.textHost" : 'jabber.mcs.anl.gov', I wonder if there are some documents that explain how to deploy our own jabber server. Or at least a way an admin can add some filters to avoid non allowed IP addresses send messages. Thanking you in advance.
