John, I saw that thread, and the page I just mentioned - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Installing_ejabberd - is a completely new rewrite that I posted on the wiki yesterday, based on a walkthrough for Ubuntu that I posted on my blog[0] last Thursday. I've had at least one report of success using the instructions I blogged (and it worked for me). [0] http://morgancollett.wordpress.com/2008/02/27/olpc-community-jabber-servers-ejabberd-200-from-source/ I'm not sure what you mean by "old instructions", but all that was on the wiki as of last week was http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Ejabberd_Configuration (originally by Rob McQueen but edited by various people), and I agree that the shared roster section had errors - I think due to edits by various people that deviated from the original but weren't fully tested. I'll check this page and rectify any remaining errors I can identify. I have seen that you can create shared rosters from the command line using mod_ctlextra, so my next step is to test that and amend http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Installing_ejabberd (the walkthrough) to use that method, and http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Ejabberd_Configuration (the comprehensive developer page) to mention it as an alternative.
