 Dear Sir,

 I use pidgin 2.10.6. I install my own ejabberd server. I cannot send file
 into a group chat but can send to a individual one by one. It seems that
 the UI does not allow to drop. I found that Jitsi cannot send files to
 group, too. Is this a standard behavior?

 Hi,

I am not aware of any standards which support this activity, there are
several considerations when trying to transfer files to a group of users.
Primarily bandwidth for sending, storage, waiting for acceptance from each
party and potential to spam groups of people with unwanted requests.

Whilst none of these issues are insurmountable the do offer an explanation
as to why it has not been implemented to date.

One of the Google Summer of Code students projects is to deal with a
protocol agnostic file transfer method using HTTP which might get you to
what you are looking for when it is complete:

Cannot connect to some XMPP Services from all Users on One system

2013-07-18 Thread Shlomi Fish 
Hi all,

On one of my Mageia Linux Cauldron systems (What will become Mageia Linux 4
eventually), I have a problem that Pidgin refuses to connect to either my
shlomif...@jabber.org account or to my facebook.com account. However, it is
fine with a Pidgin in the same machine inside a VM, and it's fine on a
different machine also running Mageia Linux Cauldron.

Moreover, the problem persists on the offending machine even for a brand new
UNIX user account, so it appears to be something global. My machines are
x86-64 ones. I can also connect to @gmail.com XMPP addresses and to those of
AIM, ICQ and MSN.

Here is what I get in the log. Can anyone help?

Regards,
