Hey Jesse,
I don't know about the XMPP implementation that Dreamhost uses, but some of
these servers don't like to return a null byte to terminate the stanza which
Flash XMLSocket requires. Sometimes you need to give the Jabber server a
special initiator to let it know that you are a Flash client and therefore
need this null terminator.
Sean Voisen originally wrote the XIFF library for the 1.4 version of the
JabberD server. This was before he joined with Jive. Anyway, that server
didn't require you to pass anything special to connect with a Flash client
so the initial handshake was simply:" <?xml version=\"1.0\"?><stream:stream
to=...." Jive's server, Wildfire, requires that you pass it a
"<flash:stream" to let it know.
I actually helped Sean out with getting that connect method of the
XMPPConnection class to have mutiple "streamTypes" cause I was using another
server (Antepo) at the time and the default intiator didn't work. So, now
there are four different stream types to choose from depending on the server
you are using. I would suggest that you try out all of the streamTypes and
see if one of those works.
If Dreamhost uses the 2.x version of JabberD, then I think you might be
screwed, as those guys are hard core and said that returning a null byte is
not part of the XMPP spec, and they wanted to be %100 compliant. At least
this was the case a year ago.
Anyway, feel free to IM me if you have any questions, I might be able to
help as I do use the XIFF library on a daily basis.
Good luck.
-Chris
P.S.
You may want to add this method to the XMPPConnection class, as it will
allow you to pass plain Strings to the server thus allowing you to try out
things easier.
