[JDEV] Still can't get the AIM Transport to run

I had this same problem and it made a difference when I changed the service
entry in jabber.xml from:

  <service id="aim.cos.cw.net">
    <accept>
      <ip>127.0.0.1</ip>
      <port>7009</port>
      <secret>aimtest</secret>
    </accept>
  </service>

to:

  <service id="aim.cos.cw.net">
    <accept>
      <ip/>
      <port>7009</port>
      <secret>aimtest</secret>
    </accept>
  </service>

Notice the line specifying the ip address

Well I sure thought I had but when I recompiled everything yesterday
I forgot to reconfigure with the --with-jabber2 switch so 5269 was
the hardcoded port.  Sorry about that!

However, now that I have fixed that little bug, the server is looking
for MX records associated with the transport IP address I assume.
The output looks like the following:

Thu Dec 14 10:20:34 2000  debug/xmlstream.c:222 xmlstream_main: startup

Thu Dec 14 10:20:38 2000  error/etherxs Failed to establish
communication with etherxd


Since I had to set up a simple name server in order to have adns
resolve aim.noah.gte.com I never bothered with MX records for the
domain.  I assume I need to provide them or I have something else
configured incorrectly.  Thanks again for your help.
