Re: Connecting from Linux to MSN Messenger?
RR on RH9; it was quite a time ago ; I don't remember the RR exact details of configuration (it could be that I downloaded some plugin) I use GAIM to connect to MSN, AIM, ICQ and googletalk, and it works perfectly. It can do more protocols, generally, I just have nobody to talk to with them :) -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] \/ There shall be counsels taken Stanislav Malyshev /\ Stronger than Morgul-spells phone +972-54-6524945 /\ JRRT LotR. whois:!SM8333 = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Connecting from Linux to MSN Messenger?
Hi, I did connect to an MSN Messenger with gaim (http://gaim.sourceforge.net/) on RH9; it was quite a time ago ; I don't remember the exact details of configuration (it could be that I downloaded some plugin) but it was not difficult (when you add a new accoount you should select from a list of protocols : ICQ,MSN messenger , Jabber and others).

Re: Connecting from Linux to MSN Messenger?
Thanks, Amos Shapira and Rami Rosen. I use kopete and when I start it up, various Qt related error messages show up but it seems to work OK. I ended up createing a new account on MS-Passport and then saw no failure to connect (but no actual communication with the user in question either, the user is probably offline at the moment). I still have a problem connecting to ICQ from kopete (however licq has been working for me for long time). The problem is that the password, which works on licq - does not work on kopete connection. I tried to delete and recreate the ICQ account definition in kopete, but this was not successful. I did verify that kopete is trying to connect to the same ICQ server +port as licq. Did anyone else encounter problems connecting to ICQ from kopete? If yes, how did he work around them? Did anyone try editing ~/.kde/share/config/kopeterc manually? --- Omer On Wed, 2005-09-14 at 14:58 +1000, Amos Shapira wrote: On 9/14/05, Omer Zak [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Did anyone succeed in connecting to MSN Messenger from Linux (Debian Sarge distribution)?

Re: Connecting from Linux to MSN Messenger?
I use Kopete for my messaging needs. MSN, ICQ, Yahoo Google Talk (jabber) all work nicely with no or minimal configuration required. GAIM is a good IM program too :) On 9/14/05, Omer Zak [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks, Amos Shapira and Rami Rosen.
