wanna use Jabber for local network IM server

I wanna use Jabber for my local network IM server.
I have installed
jabber-1.4.2a-1mdk
jabber-conference-1.4.2a-1mdk
jabber-jud-1.4.2a-1mdk
jabber-icq-1.4.2a-1mdk
jabber-yahoo-1.4.2a-1mdk
jabber-aim-1.4.2a-1mdk
jabber-msn-1.4.2a-1mdk

I use gabber to connect to it.
gabber-0.8.7-3mdk

My user can connect to the server and create the new account.
I did the same using Winjab Client 1.1.0.1 under windows XP.

Users can not see each other when connected.
Winjab says error code 502 Unable to resolve hostname when i try to send
a message from one user to another.

I have a local DNS that resolves FQDNs.
Everybody can  ping to each other using short names or FQDN.
let's say my client is hsxp1.homesoft.com.py, it can ping to the server
hsmdk.homesoft.com.py or using hsmdk.
the server hsmdk.homesoft.com.py can ping to the client hsxp1 or using
hsxp1.homesoft.com.py.

This is what /var/log/jabber/error.log says (sorry it's a little bit long)

Yahoo registers but nothing after that??

Hi all,
 
        I downloaded the latest yahoo transport version 2  from the jabber site, installed it on my linux system, configured the xml files and started the server.
    I was able to get the yahoo transport up and running, connected my client to the jabber server also, worked perfectly fine.
The problem was that when i register on my yahoo transport the server runs and i get a return subscription saying that yahoo has requested for
your subscription, i say yes to that also. After that i do not get my yahoo friends list nothing ever happens but this is what i get at the server end
 
 
 mio.c:279 write_dump writing data: <presence from='yahoo.myserver.com/registered' to='abcde <at> myserver.com' type='error'><status>Online</status><x xmlns='jabber:x:delay' from='abcde <at> myserver.com' stamp='20020913T11:32:45'/><x xmlns='jabber:x:delay' from='abcde <at> myserver.com' stamp='20020913T11:32:45'/><error code='500'>Internal Server Error</error></presence>
 
 
Whats seems to be the problem, i cant figure out anything, i have compiled the transport based on the README in the yahoo transport files, and when i ran it this seems to be the problem.
 
Can anyone help me out???
 
 
TIA
 
regards
Bharath Kumar

Call for Translators

We will soon have a consistent set of documentation that can be translated
into languages other than English. These documents cover "everything
Jabber" and include end user help files, server admin howtos, developer
guides, and protocol documents. They are not quite ready yet, but it would
be great to have translation teams in place who can work on them when they
are finished (about 2 weeks from now for most of the docs, with the final
docs finished about 4 weeks from now, as well as ongoing maintenance). We
already have a team ready to translate them into Spanish, and in the past
I have talked with people who have translated Jabber docs into French,
German, Russian, Italian, and Chinese. However, now I am asking for help
with translating the entire set of documents into as many languages as
possible (or a subset of docs if we can't find a full team of translators
for some languages). We have never done this before but I think it would
really help developers, server admins, and users all over the world. Of
coruse, because we have never done this I'm sure that there are things we
will learn and processes that we can improve, but I think it's time to
try.

If you are interested in translating docs or leading a translation team
for a specific language, please contact me directly (off-list) by sending
an email or Jabber message to stpeter <at> jabber.org.

Thanks for your help!

Peter

Re: [JDEV] Call for Translators

BTW, I have posted a news item about this as well:

http://www.jabber.org/news/index.html#2002-09-25T15:03

So far we have volunteers for Spanish, Russian, and Japanese. More
languages would be great! I have set up a special mailing list for this
project, so please join that if you are interested:

If you only want LDAP for auth, then the way to go is xdb_auth_cpile:
http://www.snoogans.co.uk/jabber/index.htm#xdb_auth_cpile

You won't have too many problems setting it up.
