Hi Michael,

I tested this, two AstLinux boxes side by side, opened TCP 5222 on each and TCP 
5269 between each box in the Firewall tab.

In each box's XMPP Server Configuration, Server-to-ServerConnections: [ enabled 
], { Save Settings } and { Restart Server }.

My test box's DNS are "pbx2.priv.abelbeck.com" and "pbx3.priv.abelbeck.com".

With a client JID "[email protected]", connected to pbx2, and sent an 
IM to JID "[email protected]" it worked as expected, creating a 
'federated' IM network between the two boxes.

Note if the JID's domain did not match the hostnames, then a DNS SRV recored 
must be made to map the JID's to the proper host, just like MX records and SMTP.

I assume this would also work connecting with GoogleTalk, but may not be 
necessary or a good idea.

Lonnie
