Hi

some syntax changes below which I had to make to be able to use these two repositories here:

Code: [Select]

db yum_repositories set nethsme repository \
        BaseURL "http://smeserver.nethesis.it/releases/8/\$basearch" \
        EnableGroups yes \
        GPGCheck yes \
        Name "Nethesis SME Repository" \
        Visible yes \
        status disabled

Code: [Select]

db yum_repositories set epel repository \
EnableGroups no \
GPGCheck yes \
MirrorList "http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=epel-5&arch=\$basearch" \
Name "Epel" \
Visible yes \
status disabled

Oh, I realise this is not a newer version of the previous "Ejabberd" (http://wiki.contribs.org/Ejabberd). It's a different jabber setup, depending on other services (no "erlang").

Alessio has done the work to template the configuration files (Thank You!). Could someone point me to a HowTo or some other setup help for this particular jabber server setup? Where to setup users, etc. I would like to try this. Thanks.

yes, different setup

There's nothing to do, only the few notes that i have wrote. What's missing?  Users are SME users, and passwords too. Port is 5222 on SSL

Thank you very much for the information. It should be easier than I thought.

When I try to setup an account via Pidgin I get a "Host unknown". I am thinking that I did every other setting correctly (at least settings that I used on the former "ejabberd").

I found some documentation in the meantime and as I understand it from the quick setup guide, the c2s.xml needs a change for the "id" field (apparently the hostname?) but the id generated here seems to be a default "c2s" (see below) which I think it might be part of my issue?

<!-- Our ID on the network (default: c2s) -->
  <id>c2s</id>

According to the documentation/setup guide, there is another "id" to be set in sm.xml and that one is adjusted to our (test) system:

 <id>{$SystemName}.{$DomainName}</id>    (that's from your template).

Anyway, Thank you for the nice work. I will continue testing and will report back here what I find out.

Could you please send a patch to the email address that you find in the rpm changelog? (rpm -q --changelog smeserver-jabberd)
Thank you!
