Hello Jim, I got collaboration working to test communication between up to three instances of my activity. It is possible to communicate between different sugar profiles running sugar 0.82 inside Xephyr. additionaly it works to communicate with a sugar 0.86 (SoaS blueberry) running in an virtual machine. Collaboration works for me under the following conditions: * using Suger 0.82 version on an old Ubuntu 8.10 * having installed ejabberd 2.0.1-2 on my box * made manual changes in the /etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg.ucf-dist (vehikel is the host name of my box) %% Options which are set by Debconf and managed by ucf %% Admin user {acl, admin, {user, "jtest", "vehikel"}}. %% Hostname {hosts, ["vehikel"]}. * I must stop the firewall before starting Xephyr or the virtual machine: SUGAR_PROFILE=jane /usr/bin/sugar-emulator -x Spend a lot of time until it works. Some things are unclear for me. * Got it never running with the jabber server at sugarlabs.org. Think I have to less understanding about used ports. I don't want to disable the firewall in my router without detailed understanding. * I am searching for collaboration code that is more robust. For example: How to reconnect when the initiating activity stops for while and than is back on stage. Think the collaboration model of sugar is very interesting. But I spend last year a lot of time to get it running. It was frustrating.
