Hi all,

Apologies for the mass mail but I am quite stuck with a problem getting 
Jabber to work and I've virtually exhausted all sources of help I can find.
Hope I may have a little of your time to point out what could be the 
problem here:

Basically I've set up Jabber on RedHat6.2 for all of the following components:

libxode
libjabber
libetherx
jabber-transport

by running ./configure, make, make install and then ldconfig for each of 
the above.  I can start jserver by running "/usr/local/bin/jserver &" with 
no problems.   I note that in /usr/local/var/log/jserver.error there is 
message:

Tue Aug  8 12:40:30 2000  warn/jserver Initializing Services

Jabber is running on 192.168.0.1 and my WinJab is running from 192.168.0.55 
-- both machines are able to ping each other and port 5222 is open on 
192.168.0.3.

I am unable to get WinJab to connect to 192.168.0.3, it gives me the 
following message:

Attempting to Connect to 192.168.0.3...
Disconnected from Server!
COMM ERROR: Could not establish Stream. Session Closed. (0)
Pausing 5 secs. before reconnect Attempt

I am able to use WinJab to connect to jabber.com with no problems.  It 
appears then there is some problem on my jserver.  Do I need to start 
etherxd manually?  If i do, I have been unable to locate this file anywhere...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

cheers,
Patrick
