Enable iChat Server S2SDecember 2, 2005 - 6:31pm
It would appear that someone in Apple’s server development team thought it was a bad idea to have the included Jabber server able to talk to other Jabber servers on the internet. That person misses the point of the technology. At the very least it should have been off with a checkbox to turn it on or something. Anyhow, it’s very easy to turn back on. Like most things in Server that have been left out, all you do is edit a configuration file. Open up /etc/jabberd/jabberd.xml and find the stanza that starts with Voila, she works now.

From my understanding, the Jabber server was intended more for intranets and the like, where you want to have a centralized server everybody in your group (or company) can use securely. Communicating with other Jabber servers kind of goes against this. So I’m really not at all surprised that it’s disabled by default without a GUI means to turn it back on.
I .. yeah, I said that. Well, not here, over there but .. yeah. Bad design decision.

Hi, did you get the server to server working with bytestreams between two sites?
I’m interested in allowing bunches of users on their own (firewalled) iChat servers to AV conference with each other.
Do you know if enabling s2s and setting up a proxy65 DNS entry on each server will allow me to do this?
thanks for a great site!

Just having proxy65 on one of the servers should suffice. Should.
