If the XS is on 0.5.x, and you can make a backup, I would strongly recommend

   yum --enablerepo=olpcxs-testing update

which will bring updates from the Fedora-9 series (good!) and will
upgrade your install to the latest XS-0.6 code (which is not yet
formally released, but is significantly better than 0.5.x).

This brings in a lot of enhancements, should not be a very large
download (though maybe the Fedora-9 updates are a bit bulky). The main
update affecting you is that it includes the new ejabberd that does
everything magically.

Once yum update is complete, you need to rerun your domain_config
command. Just once. And reboot.

cheers,
