Thanks for clearing that up.  I'll try it again later.

Joshua,

That's actually what I did but I was still able to replicate the 
behavior you wrote on fresh install of 0.6d2 where ejabberctl status 
shows that the server is running but nothing is listening on 5280.  
I'm on a slow connection so I can't try it right now on 0.6 and 
compare if it only happens for me on 0.6d2.

I can replicate this issue as well.  What currently works for me on 
0.6d2 is to turn off ejabberd in the SysV scripts and just start 
ejabberd manually using ejabberdctl start.  Of course this doesn't 
give me the nifty stuff like the autoconfiguration/detection which 
init.d/ejabberd provides.  So it must be something in the way ejabberd 
is started in the SysV script?
