You could use zero-configuration networking for the discovery: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/about/ac123/ac147/ac174/ac206/about_cisco_ipj_archive_article09186a0080132b85.html TinyURL: http://tinyurl.com/4bz7v Then use JEP-0030 for detailed service information. Or you could write a server-side component that has more information about entities on your network (something like a Jabber User Directory but for network services). Will your network entities have stable addresses or JabberIDs, or do you require dynamic discovery? /psa _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev
