[Server-devel] XS_0_4 install

[Tony Anderson]

Today the behavior has changed a little.

First, the network problem.

The 'other host' problem turns out to be a newbie error on my part. The 
router was configured as 172.18.0.1 but labeled as 172.18.0.3. We have 
reconfigured the router to be 172.18.0.3 and the XO has access to the 
internet via the schoolserver!

The ejabberd problem persists; however, I think it may also be a newbie 
problem. I'll try to keep you posted.

Yours,

Tony
