A little clarification: - the --port argument only specifies the main port, not the related (event,data,text) ports (unfrotunately) - the event,data,text ports are specified only in the cfg file - text does _not_ use 9004 or similar in AG3; instead, textHost and textPort point at a Jabber server (using jabber.mcs.anl.gov:5223 by default)
Derek: I'd suggest you modify the AG3 venueserver.cfg to specify: textHost = jabber.mcs.anl.gov textPort = 5223 and then try to start it. If you want to use your own jabber server instead, you would modify textHost accordingly.
