Downloading the Jabber Server
The Jabber server package can be obtained from the Jabber project site, http://www.jabber.org; the 1.4.1 version is available in the downloads area:
The tarball jabber-1.4.1.tar.gz contains everything that you need to get a Jabber server up and running.[2] Previous versions of the Jabber server came in multiple packages; it was necessary to separately obtain and install GNU’s portable threads library (pth) and the asynchronous DNS package (ADNS), as well as obtaining and installing various Jabber-specific libraries such as libxode, libjabber, and libetherx. Now some of these libraries and packages have become obsolete as far as the Jabber server is concerned (ADNS and libetherx) and others have been combined into the main Jabber server tarball.
If you don’t want to compile the server yourself, you can also download prebuilt binaries for some of the platforms already mentioned, from http://download.jabber.org.
[2] If you want the Jabber server to support SSL connections, you will need to have installed an SSL package; see the next chapter for more details.
