[JDEV] wcs configuration

Tue Oct 16 15:00:14 CDT 2001

i'm trying to get familiar with the web client services and i'm stumped.
so far i've compiled the modules and configured jabber.xml following the
instructions provided on jabber.org [1],  with some changes inspired 
by other config files i've seen [2].  my jabber.xml file now contains 
the information shown in [3].

i can use a web brower to talk to the wcs and get presence information 
- see [4] to see if i'm online. but when i try using the web client 
provided in the docs i run into problems.

i can send messages to another client [5], but the server isn't able to
handle the response from that client correctly.  it starts complaining 
about not being to
process the message...can't find component [i'm paraphrasing the error
message - i don't have it in front of me right now].

i'm probably missing something pretty dopey.  how do i set the config 
file so that native jabber clients can respond to
the wcs correctly?
