If you do not type exactly what you did and what the responses were I'mnot going to bother reading it

I did not know that I would have to state exactly what I did in every post. I have previously mentioned detailed what I tried and Gordon made a suggestion that I was just answering upon.

As you ...

Hi again,

I now tried from completely different PCs at work and cannot reach my easyfind-adress on any of them, but if I type the IP directly, everything is fine. Still seems to be a DNS problem, but I tried to check DNS records using some different nameservers, and all said that my adress pointed ...

From where to where are you trying to get to your B3 using its myownb3.com name? Are you outside, e.g. at work, or are you on the same LAN as the B3? In the latter case this is a router issue.

As in my earlier posts, I tried from both within the same LAN as the B3 but ALSO using my cellphone via ...

Example:
- host yourname.myownb3.com 8.8.8.8 (Google Public DNS)
- host yourname.myownb3.com ns1.myownb3.org (Authoritative - primary)
- host yourname.myownb3.com ns2.myownb3.org (Authoritative - secondary)

I have tested this and in the Google Public DNS I get the correct IP:

host ***.myownb3 ...

Hi again,

meanwhile I figured out the problem why my router's IP appeared instead of an "external" DNS, but that was my fault - had entered the router's IP as DNS also in the B3's network settings. Changed that to Googles DNS just to test if it would get working.

@OliverC: Try to check your B3's ...

the problem is on your end. My guess is that you first pinged your machine, and then updated easyfind. This first ping loaded the cache of your upstream DNS provider, and thus it takes a while for the change to propagate.

OK, thanks for checking that. Well actually I turned off/ restarted ...

Dear all

thanks for your efforts trying to help us out with the easyfind problem.
As gordon recommended, I tried to force an update of my easyfind record by disabling the function in the webadmin interface and then registering again. One positive thing here is that, when enabling easyfind again, I ...

We're all doing this in our spare time, and nobody is psychic. Don't treat us as your employee or your slave.

That was absolutely not my intention! I am really grateful that there are people with the required knowledge out here that are willing to spend their time te help the community ...

Nope. Not for me.
Just checked the progress in the discussions here and tested both from my home IP (where the B3 also is) and via 4G on my mobile.

I assume the changes being made now do not require to make adjustments in the ntp.conf as discussed in other threads previously?

This is incorrect. The full functionality has been copied and tested. The mybubba.org servers can replace the old infra 100%, requires no changes or configuration at the user end.

Hmmm. I did not even know about the sad thing with excitos bankruptcy, and everything worked just fine for me with ...

Thanks a lot for your help so far. I did not get ejabberd working so i decided to uninstall and reinstall it. After uninstallation, the /etc/ejabberd folder was still existent. After reinstallation, the old ejabberd.cfg was not replaced and the old (wrong) configuration still existed. I uninstalled ...

Thanks toukie for sharing your experience. I think I will wait for some more replies just "to be very very sure" and then I'll give it a try...

In what respect can the installation be tricky? The tutorial by johannes does not look that complicated, but i guess from my previous experience that it is ...

Hi all

I would like to install ejabberd as described in the HowTo provided by johannes. I would like to use it to be able to chat with my wife (and friends) via smartphone instead of writing sms. And NO - facebook, ICQ and other existing services don't suit me, I do not want to give my personal ...

I took a look at the howto and did exactly as instructed (including the instruction to have the .htpasswd in /etc/.passwords). I also changed .htaccess so that the path to the password file is right.
.htaccess is now placed in /home/web, so I suppose i should get a password request when just typing ...
