Another possible option is to run your own XMPP server with your own accounts (which could be @davron.net if you wanted). You can make this server accessible for remote/home/road-based users as well as office-based users, if you wish. I'd recommend the Openfire server. It's not difficult to set up and takes little ongoing management, in my experience. See http://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/openfire/index.jsp. It works well with Pidgin. (Note, I have no connection with Openfire or its developers; I am simply a user of the software). -- Mark Rousell PGP public key: http://www.signal100.com/markr/pgp Key ID: C9C5C162 ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?

Re: Getting my workplace connected
I would like to get my small company using Pidgin but it is not working. I do not care if we use our gmail or davron.net accounts but either way when I enable it says under my e-mail it is not authorized. What should I do to fix this? Allison, You have a few options. First I'd like to warn you that this is a public mailing list. Option 1: Using Bonjour. If you have a small company that is all on a single network (one subnet) you will be happy to know that Pidgin works great in combination with the Bonjour protocol. This requires very little setup and works great for inter-office communication. Instructions are available here: https://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/Protocol%20Specific%20Questions#BonjourLink-LocalMessaging Option 2: Using Google Talk (Gmail): Google Talk requires certain ports to be open on your company firewall. Some people have had success by switching the Port number in preferences from 5222 to 443. This may get you further. Option 3: Davron.net: No one on this list would know about your davron.net accounts so you would have to explain in much more detail about what these are and what technology they use before any recommendations can be made. Again, please be discreet with information as you are on a public mailing list. -Tres ___ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
