Greetings all,
I created a jabber account at earth.li for use with Apple's iChat IM client. Traditionally, iChat used only the AIM service, but in OS X 10.4 you can now use jabber accounts too. I decided it would be nice to talk to my MSN and iChat buddies in the same app.
These are the instructions I followed if anyone else is interested: http://allforces.com/2005/05/06/ichat-to-msn-through-jabber/
I had it all working fine until a week or two ago, but now when I try to use the jabber.earth.li server, it warns me that my password is being sent in the clear. When I dismiss the warning, it asks me to enter my password, which I do. It then warns me again about my password being in the clear. The loop is endless.
Does anyone know why this started happening?
Dan
Hi,
Couldn't get the website below to load right now but I've been using Jabber and ichat to msn tunnel or whatever you want to call it for 6 months plus now I would say. I've no problems at all so I can only guess that it is something specific on your client, what version of ichat are you using, do you have a dot mac account? Have you installed anything new on your machine during the last two weeks? It's not asking for your keychain password?
