trying to connect to a jabber server

I am running the Wildfire Jabber server, and for some reason I can't
connect with centericq. Debug shows:

-- centericq debug log started on Fri Feb  3 13:01:05 2006
+ [jab] connecting to the server

I am not sure what the problem is, can someone point it out to me?

centericq on freebsd...security concerns?

Hi guys,

I just checked out centericq on my freebsd box, and I have some security 
concerns.

The files in the .centericq directory in /home, which include chat 
histories from all contacts AND username/password information in plain 
text, are written as world-readable.  So anyone with an account on the 
box can read all of it.  Is there a setting to change this default 
behavior?  I feel like I'm missing something.

No there're not. The dirs are 700 and files are created with your umask.

Re: Centericq on FreeBSD

Can you give me a little bit more info on what you're running? FreeBSD
version?

I've run centericq on freebsd for several years now without substantial
problems (the occational segfault).

FYI, I can also compile centericq with no problems from CVS.

Re: Centericq on FreeBSD

I compiled it fine from ports, myself.  Doing it from ports takes care 
of a couple dependencies that maybe Horst is overlooking. 

cd /usr/ports/net-im/centericq
make
make install
make distclean
:)

It's pretty different from linux rpms and manual building.  But once you 
get used to it, ports rocks the house. 

Now that I have the umask thing settled, I'm digging it.  The window 
looks a little goofy over an SSH connection (this is a headless box), 
but it works for all three services I use.

Tangential question:  How does one close a conversation?  If I talk to 
12 people in a session, it starts to get tricky hitting control-n or 
control-b to switch between the few live sessions, because all the 
completed convos are still there.

Re: Centericq on FreeBSD

Run it through "screen", takes care of random login session disconnects, 
and gets around goofy termcaps that don't display the line art right.

search sometimes isn't working

Hi,

Search sometimes isn'n working. I try to search by number and 
no results could be found. It's strange, because this number 
exists. It has been checked on several numbers.

Has anyone experienced such problems? Is it centericq's bug, 
or Mirabilis has changed something in protocol?

Re: cicq 4.21.0 - MSN online/offline contact status

This is driving me insane. I am talking to someone on my AIM session
from work, which uses trillian. In my ssh screen running centericq, he
shows as offline.

afk while I configure naim.

Re: search sometimes isn't working

I had the same problems. I think, that it partialy depends on
ping-response speed. These problem disappeared when i've changed my
connection from gprs to wifi,..
