Hi to all, could be my question have a simple answer but to be honest I'm not an expert in SME server, I had migrated my Windows 2000 Server to SME server, but I really want to add another benefit as a Internal chat program, for more details check details bellow:
.- I have for (4) IBM machine with Windows XP Professional SP3
.- One (1) IBM System X 3200 M2 working as a Only File server. (This work very well)
Question: Some one know if exist some free chat program that have the possibility to install in the Windows XP machine but in the same time get the address book used by the email SME server only to chat internally into my LAN.
Thanks in advance

This sounds like what you want so you may want to look here;
http://wiki.contribs.org/Ejabberd
I've not used before, so I cannot comment any further. Hope this helps.

I just installed using the given command to install.

Use Openfire, it is superb. The only thing is you must create the users manually, or make a hack to add it automatically when a new user is created in the SME Server.
Openfire is really fast and stable. You also can use the MSN or Yahoo gateway as openfire plugins. It has a lot of customizations.

I used Ejabberd at the last place I worked for ... worked perfectly ... and installed without problems.
You may have to double check the instructions.

Many Thanks friends for your excellent advises and support, appear Ejabberd is the best option in my case but this mean that after install Ejabberd into my SME server, need to go to the computer (XP) to configure MSM messenger to connect directly to SME server.
Some one know how configure MSM messenger to connect directly to my Ejabberd server?
I really appreciate your comments.
Thanks in advance,

I never modified MSN to work with ejabberd ... don't even know if you can.
I would install a different client so you can run them side by side if required.
I can't remember what one I used but I'm sure there are a lot better ones out now.
Look at the link and see some of the supported free clients for ejabberd.
http://www.ejabberd.im/client-suggestions
All 3 of the suggested ones look good ... I guess it depends on what your requirements are.

Tib

ok ... I found the client I was using at work.
http://www.pandion.be/
Not a particularly feature rich client but very stable and did the job we required.
I even had external clients connected to us using pandion ... I think you can also connect to other services with this one eg: MSN Yahoo etc.

Tib

Hi
Great win32 client is QIP Infium http://qip.ru/en
Not QIP(icq only client), but QIP Infium
current release is 9022
download from here http://qip.ru/ru/pages/download_infium_ru/ because english download page is broken.
supported languages: en, ru
supported protocols: jabber, icq, GoogleTalk etc
(+) compact, fast, useful, no ads
(-) need first to register account on qip.ru ( quick & free)
(-) broken pages on english part of site
I use it on many PCs with ICQ (internet) & OpenFire (intranet) many months

If you have IM Gateway openfire plugin you can integrate MSN-YAHOO-IRC-GTALK-ICQ and more in the same client, like Spark

:mad: Dear all I have more that 12 hours trying to resolve the post installation EJabber problem, but I have to recognized that I'm not an expert in SME, however I just check some pages in internet doing all that the expert recommended. I just follow-up all steps described in the http://wiki.contribs.org/Ejabberd installation step but when I try to access the EJabber web console I just received the following error:
ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: ibsme.local:5280
The following error was encountered:

Have a look in /var/log/messages and /var/log/httpd/error_log and /var/log/httd/access_log around the time you tried and see if there are any clues in there. If you can not understand them try to post the relevant sections here, please do not post the files completely as they contain to much information. Try to isolate the time you experience(d) the error.
We do not have a USB or LAN powered crystal ball, you know? ;-)

Hello, I tried to install smeserver-ejabberd today.
as the packages were all in the repo's, I installed like
yum --enablerepo=smetest --enablerepo=smecontribs smeserver-ejabbed
it installed a few dependencies (erlang, ejabberd, and some I don't remember)
and it only complained about the absence of a user ejabberd.
Then I went to the server-manager and configured the contrib.
but then I tried to register the user admin using Pidging, and it didn't work. I suspect the service is not even active.
What can I do?

Hello, I tried to install smeserver-ejabberd today.

yum --enablerepo=smetest --enablerepo=smecontribs smeserver-ejabbed
I guess you follow this (http://wiki.contribs.org/Ejabberd) guide..
do you know you are using a beta version?
it installed a few dependencies (erlang, ejabberd, and some I don't remember)
and it only complained about the absence of a user ejabberd.
does this user exist now?
what's the output of
grep jabber /etc/passwd
?
Then I went to the server-manager and configured the contrib.
but then I tried to register the user admin using Pidging, and it didn't work. I suspect the service is not even active.
What can I do?
ps aux
will tell you if it's running
netstat -napt
if it's listening for connections
anyway, you should have a fine in /etc/rc7.d/ to start/stop the service
ls -la *jabber* /etc/rc7.d/
try, of course
service ejabberd start

Hello Stefano, english is somewhat easier for me but i'll drop by.. with the same question..
And yes I know this is beta, well I hope just the smeserver part is beta, the jabberserver is ok isnt it? I am trying this on a box that does just do proxying/dansguardian for our company.. just hope it won't interfere.
anyway: ps aux |egrep jab gives this

Hello all,
Bug 5249
http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5249 (http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5249)
-
I have made some progressions:
according to the log in /var/log/ejabberd.run , ejabberd was crashing continuously. probably because of permission problems?
I have made a user ejabberd with the user panel
I have made /var/log/ejabberd/* writable by all (chmod -r 775)
I have REMOVED the ejabberd package (yum remove ejabberd )
I have ADDED the smeserver-ejabberd package ( yum --enablerepo=smetest --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-ejabberd )
Still, I could not connect to the server with pidgin, so I have made the first user by hand ( ejabberdctl register admin@server password)
then I could log in to the user page
I have created a new user with the user page.
now, the server seems to be running, but I still cannot connect to it..

now that was quite stupid.
When compiling a new account in pidgin,
you must insert the hostname of the ejabber server in the secont tab in the field "connection server" (between port and proxy)
IT WORKS!!
