Hey Darrel. Honestly, only what i know about jabber protocol is that miranda client supports it. I thought that jabber has its own global server where you get an account which you can use it like on skype/windows messenger. However, after research on google, i see that i was wrong and that its possible to setup its own xmpp server under domain. Maybe that would be an option but as i said earlier, i'm looking for a client which allows direct comunication between the computers if possible. If you have more info about jabber and accessibility feel free to write thru the list or you can contact me privately with more details. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darrell Shandrow" To: "Blind sysadmins list" Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2008 12:26 AM Subject: Re: [Blind-sysadmins] Accessible lan messaging client

Hello Mario,

Is use of the open Jabber protocol an option for you?

Hey all. I'm looking for some accessible messaging client which supports comunication thru private network because i need it for comunication inside the company between the employers ... something like direct comunication from computer to computer. One option is to setup something like windows messsenger or skype but as i said, i would like to disable usage of comunication thru internet if possible. I know for one client called winmessenger which allows the user to see all the computers inside private network as well as chat comunication but it didn't show up to accessible so i'm looking for something similar. Any help would be apreciated. Thanks Mario

How about Ventrilo. It is something we use as a VOIP software / Chat software for our CISCO training for the blind at Curtin Univeristy in Perth Australia.

Each user in our CISCO training has a user account with a user name and password controlled by the site administrator and when they log into the service as a client which provide a variety of rooms / office that are setup by the site administrator. We then communicate in real time one on one or via a class for information and we can provide feedback via chat.

We are using 100 seats for I believe 150 a year. We use WIndows and Mac accounts to access this service for our training program.
