Martin/list To remind you, I am getting to know the XS using an installation on a laptop, with 2 XO-B4s and 1 XO-1, all running build 703 and G1G1 activity pack. I have followed the configuration instructions for a small school server, ejabberd starts on boot etc. I have tested the server with and without Internet access via Ethernet.
I am using a prototype active antenna that obviously is working fine. I had initial success, finding that all three XOs immediately could access the server and Internet through the browser, and they could see each other in the neighbourhood, share and invite. I then registered all three, this was uneventful. The register option no longer appears on the XOs. However, the result (unless this is a red herring) is that they can all still access the server and Internet but do not see each other any more in the neighbourhood and cannot collaborate. Can you point to any lines of attack to diagnose the problem. I can see the school mesh and simple (olpc) mesh with my Windows laptop.

How could that be? But I will do so. XOs are smart enough to collaborate even without the XS, and in this case they are using the AP but not using the ejabberd-provided services for collaboration. The main difference is that it scales much *much* better once they've registered and are using it. > Can you explain the importance of the domain name. I just called mine > "oceania.org". Do we need to register domain names for external services? None whatsoever. I've copied this reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - let's have technical questions and answers archived *there* -- it is pretty hard for me to scale if the technical questions are asked in private. Doing it in the public list means they are archived and searchable :-) cheers, m -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
