I am trying to use the MSN client in GAIM 1.1.4 that's included with SuSE 9.3, but it keep failing to connect. I have tried connecting on my XP box using the same login and password, and I don't have any issues there.
The error in the GAIM/MSN window is: "Unable to authenticate: Unable to connect"
And, as I stated above, the XP client with the same username and password work.
Is there something I am missing, or has there been some GAIM notice I missed?
Thanks Eric
The version of GAIM included is very old, and will no longer connect with MSN. Get the latest RPMs for SuSE from http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/rpm-navigation.php?cat=%2FNetwork%2Fgaim/.
The above GAIM 1.2.1 works fine with the AIM and yahoo clients. But, I am still having trouble with the MSN one. I only have "signed off" logs, and nothing showing I have logged in. I get a proxy error when trying to use that, and no additional when trying "No Proxy", same as my previous problem. Thanks! eric
