RE: AIM Nicks With Spaces and Password Storage

I'm not saying that cleartext passwords
on disk are the best thing in the world, 
but I would rate it as no more heinous 
than cleartext passwords on the wire.
In fact, it's probably easier for someone
to get your AOL password through a packet
sniffer than to get onto your server to
read the AOL gateway password files.

Just my 2c,

Todd.

Are there plans to add support for AOL nicknames that have spaces?  I

Re: Running jabber on port 80

Honestly I'm not totally sure about config, but I believe it defaults to
port 5280, so you have to put the port part in your http query.

I suggest that you download the cvs copy of the ICQ transport. It worked 
for me.

The request timeout is fixed and the casual connection failed due to p2p 
nature of ICQ is fixed.

I suggest that you configure your ICQ transport to use UDP only, to pass 
messages thru the ICQ server. My setup is behind a firewall, that's why an 
ICQ TCP connection setup is not possible.

Anyway, it's good to download the latest CVS copy of the ICQ-transport. I'm 
currently using it now, and so far found no problem.

Tried the latest CVS (as of 1 hour ago) - still no luck here.

Unfortunately, that's for the messaging protocol, not the configuration

It's on my to-do list but other stuff always seems to intrude...
