hi,

how exactly can i use dreamhost's jabberd with self-signed ssl certificates to make sure that my jabber sessions are encrypted?

cheers

In the client I use (iChat) there is a check box that says allow self-signed certs.

If you use SSL with jabber you have to set the server field to the server you are one. I'm on neo so mine looks like neo.dreamhost.com

i use iChat too, and using grand.dreamhost.com with SSL works a treat.

cheers
