jabberd14 (which is installed by the 'jabber' package) is ancient. There was a fork to create jabberd2, which is also in the repos. If you don't need anything fancy, try this. After apt-get'ing, you need to edit /etc/jabberd2/c2s.xml and /etc/jabberd2/sm.xml to have the server's hostname, the default is localhost, and then restart it. If you need a hand getting it running, poke me (MattJ) in #jabber on Freenode. Matthew. -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
