[JDEV] Jabber Server problem: Need help

[Brian Wise]

Hi,

    Keith, thank you for your advice.  It was a problem with the IP of the server and how the client was connecting to it.  I changed the host name to my IP, and connected to the client.  However, I am now getting authentication errors.  I am also now using a different IP, so the 10.0.0.x numbers do not appear anymore.  I have attached the main part of the debug output where the authentication error happens (also attached the config file), and would appreciate any insight.  I am getting a little more familiar with the overall server, but am still quite new....  Also, if some of the questions I am asking are documented somewhere, can you please point me to that documentation? (so I don't bother the mail list with questions that documentation already covers).  Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it.
