Re: [Partysip-dev] MSN Messenger & Authentication

[Aymeric Moizard]

I made it!

I finally found the only mistake(??) is that msn requires to use a
specific "realm". I used the same ip address as partysip
is running on and it worked.

serverrealm = "192.168.1.66"

Does anybody knows how to configure the realm on windows messenger.

Also, it works both with 401 and 407...
