Hi Matthias and Norman.

Thank you so much! I got it working now! I can start the jabberd file
from the /jabber/bin location now, i still get the segmentation fault of
course, but now I can debug it :)

I debug it like this:

[root at localhost bin]# gdb jabberd 
blabla
(gdb) run
Starting program: /jabber/bin/jabberd 
20070314T21:12:11: [notice] (-internal): initializing server
(this is where i send the create-user-acount xml string from a telnet
client)
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Is this enough debugging info, or should i run gdb with some flags?
Those hex values doesent make much sense to me, but it says something
about that libpth.so.20 again.

Well thank you again, you made my day alot better :)
