Thanks for the reply, |

I did try ejabberd very briefly but it failed to start without giving |
33 |
anything useful in the log. And I did follow the setup at the end of the |
34 |
ebuild :) |

I think it's just getting late so I'll probably try it again after some |
37 |
rest. By the looks of it though, I'd still need a MU implementation, and |
38 |
that doesn't seem easy to find. |
