Install a personal server for iChat to MSN/Yahoo gateway

Works fine. Couple questions?

Is there no way to see their actual icon? All I see is a light bulb for all of them.

How would you go about adding a new chat contact to someone from Yahoo or MSN using this new system?

Thanks

You can add users as:

user\40hotmail.com@<service>.<yourdomain>

e.g.

buba\40hotmail.com@msn.mylocaldomain

everthing was setup fine, but ichat cannot connect to host server. not sure what i'm doing wrong or if it's just 10.4.10.

it's pretty straightforward as far as setting up the server and creating your account in ichat.

i've looked at ignite's support info but it's kinda hard to follow.
