Hi All,
Those of you suffering Micro$oft-phobia, but who need to converse with their
MSN Messenger handicapped buddies, might find this useful.
I have a Jabber server, with MSN Messenger transport, running at darlow.co.uk
which I would be happy for LUG members to use.
The server name is: darlow.co.uk and it accepts plaintext connects on port
5222 and SSL-encrypted connects on port 5223.
There are a number of Jabber clients for Linux of which gabber seems to be
the most popular but I have had some success using the gaim multi-protocol IM
client also.
You'll need either a Hotmail/MSN e-mail account or an ordinary e-mail account
registered with Microsoft Passport to use the MSN Messenger Transport but for
general Jabber IM or use of the chatrooms you only need to create an account
on the server.
Please feel free to pass this offer on to your LUG members.
Regards,
Neil Darlow M.Sc. -- Beds Lugmaster

The PLUG meeting will be held on May 23rd at 7:30p.m. The address of
the meeting is as follows:
Misys Insurance Management Ltd, 7 North Street, Cavell Court, Peterborough
For those whom have never been, we are located across the Westgate
parking lot and about 3 doors down from Hobart's Pub (I think this is
the name of it). We have secure parking for those attending so there
isn't a need to pay for parking. [...]
The topic is a continuation of last month PostgreSQL which was hosted by
Steve Gallagher. Graham will be giving us an advanced insight into
PostgreSQL (and maybe some DBA tips - hint).
