You wouldn't have needed to put anything in that field in that past (and you wouldn't need to now if you weren't using Tor). I tried to explain why you need to do it in my initial response - the jabber.org XMPP server moved to a different server than what jabber.org resolves to and in order to find it, we need to do a SRV DNS lookup to find it (which isn't possible to do though a SOCKS5 proxy (Tor in your case)). OTR shouldn't be impacted by this as far as I know - OTR operates on the stream sent to/from the server rather than caring about the specific server you're connected to. -D _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
