Is it via the jabber server or as direct communications between clients?</blockquote> <p>Via the Jabber server.</p> <blockquote>Any way I can determine a client's IP address?</blockquote> <p>No idea, but if you don't find anything already done on that subject, you can still do the job yourself. One idea: modify the MirandaIM's Jabber plugin in this way: when it starts, makes a system call to get the IP. When the user logins to his Jabber account, put that IP as his 'status message', or as his resource. The problem is that anybody that is registered to that user will see his IP. If that looks good, maybe the current Jabber plugin maintainer can give you hints on how to implement it.</p> Fri, 08 Jul 2005 15:15:57 +0000 mfoss comment 608 at https://www.ejabberd.im
