[SATLUG] GAIM and Yahoo

[Sean Carolan]

Here at Medical Resource USA, we unfortunately use Yahoo IM for internal
office communication.  So it was rather disappointing to learn yesterday
morning that none of my linux users could log on to Yahoo IM.  I spent a
good part of the day yesterday mucking around with different solutions,
including setting up my own Jabber server.  The jabber server proved to
be very unstable though and was crashing every 3 minutes so we ended up
installing the "official" Yahoo linux client as a stop-gap measure. 
Eventually I would prefer of course to have an in-house solution rather
than depending on Yahoo for this.
