I should have focused on this response because this is more promising AND provides a possible and legitimate solution. Is there a remote chance that there is an xmpp compliant server (like gtalk) that I can login to that does not require sasl authentication? I am asking because in order to do this encoding I would need to compile/ build some c/c++ library and that seems like a difficult thing at this point. Is it possible for me to setup my own jabber server on local machine, log in to that server (on my local machine) and THEN try to send messages as an account holder to something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] (a chatroom)? -- ashiraz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ashiraz's Profile: http://www.jabberforum.org/member.php?userid=17305 View this thread: http://www.jabberforum.org/showthread.php?t=1061 _______________________________________________ JDev mailing list FAQ: http://www.jabber.org/discussion-lists/jdev-faq Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=20 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________
