Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: empathy
I have a Jabber-server that have an domain name that differs from its
XMPP-domain part.
So if I don't fill in the XMPP-servers name, Empathy will not connect to my
Jabber-account. This renders Empathy more or less useless, as all other
usefull Jabber-clients uses the SRV post in DNS to connect to the right
Jabber-server if it exists.
This should be possible:
Jabber server name: server.example.com
Jabber account in the server: u...@example.org
where there is a SRV record in DNS for example.org pointing to Jabber-server
server.example.com
I have no problems connecting with Gajim (or Pidgin) without setting server
name in scenarios like this.
You should look at Gajim for a good Jabber client. Especially for how to look
up services on a Jabber-server.
