[Server-devel] Laptop XS working

[David Leeming]

OK, done all that, 

I was fooled for a while, when logging onto ejabberd via the web interface
(on a connected XO) I did not realise you need to enter the full username,
i.e. admin at schoolserver.oceania.org I bet that will fool a few other novices
like me :) 

Two of the 3 laptops are now OK, but the third does not find the school mesh
and reverts to the simple mesh. This happened after I registered it, it then
locked up and had to be rebooted...... last question is, how does one remove
the registered laptop, reset the XO (I can always reinstall it) and
re-register it?

The output of the olpc-netstatus script is a key debugging tool. What
do they say?

A couple of questions that might help the matter

- Did you restart the laptops after registration?

- Did you configure ejabberd appropiately? Look in the configuration
guide thesteps to setup the "Online" roster.
