Bonjour

2013-08-27 Thread Alvise Migotto
Hello,

I'm having trouble setting up Pidgin on Windows 7 using Bonjour. We have a 
mixed Mac/Windows environment - which is why we're trying to use Bonjour. 
However, Pidgin users on Windows can only communicate with each other, and not 
with Macs (using iChat / Messages under Bonjour). Mac users can also 
communicate with each other fine. All machines are on the same network.

Any ideas to get this working cross platform? Is this possible?

Thanks 
AM

What is the specific problem?

Do the Mac users not appear online on the Windows machines and vice versa,
or is it that they appear online but you can't initiate a conversation?

If they are actually on the same subnet (note that this part is important -
network may mean something different depending on how you use the word),
and there are no firewalls interfering, it should just work - there isn't
anything platform-specific going on.
