Hi, I've seen various mailing list posts and a related project (remote logging), but perhaps there have been updates/progress since those posts/projects. I'm wondering if there's a way to use a local pidgin/purple frontend to control a remote pidgin/purple backend.
This is so that I can leave myself logged in at one location (at least for those protocols which only support a single login), and all the logging also take place on the server. This sounds like a reasonable thing to want, but I realize it can be tricky because of various issues, such as: How do you make portable as much as possible (such as plugins)? How do you make explicit to the user that things like file transfers and AIM's DirectConnect would need to take place at the server and not the local client? Etc. (Currently I use VNC, but VNC can be a frustrating experience. And I don't use pidgin-text + screen.) _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [email protected] http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
