[JDEV] [Newbie] Setting up Jabber on RH 6.2 as a _private_ messaging system?

[Thomas Muldowney]

Umm I really don't understand the complete problem here,  I need a bit more
info as to what's going on.

First, that stream header is not going to jabber.org, it's just saying if you
want info on xmlstreams you need to go to jabber.org (it's a namespace 
declaration).

Next, here are a few hints on making your server independent.  In your
jserver.xml, remove the <mod_version/> in the dso list, and comment out the 
agent item for JUD.

Finally, in your client make sure you are using the same name as the one you
specified as the default name.

Other than all that you'll need to give some good debug output for more help.
