To clarify: Jabber is a messaging protocol. Gaim understands Jabber. Install a jabber server like ejabberd on one of your linux boxes, and that box will become a jabber server. All the boxes can run Gaim and connect to the server. Run jabber conferencing (google for that) and you'll get chat rooms in addition to one-to-one IM. -- Satya. http://www.thesatya.com/ Thesaurus: ancient reptile with an excellent vocabulary. -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
