I am, but the examples the jwchat site has are for v2 of apache. I finally used the example, put it into the apache httpd.conf and I finally stopped getting a 404 err. The jabber daemon:: *yes*. A few hours ago I found the FAQ pages on the ejabberd site and realized I needed not only to add/modify several strings but uncomment them. "%" isn't normally used as a comment token. JWchat looks like it'll serve well ... if I ever get the bloody thing set up! thanks for your help, gary PS: the chap who was helping me via message board has to think i'm a moron ... won't be the 1st time:-) > -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
