    It doesn't work. I am using redirection by gandi.net, and if I direct
    the query as indicated in the manual (hey, I read it!)

    tony@hpd:~$ telnet domain-name.com 5222
    Trying 80.67.173.5...
    Trying 62.80.122.203...
    telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

    I went back to localhost, now

    tony@hpd:~$ telnet domain-name.com.ip 5222
    Trying 65.33.224.199...
    Connected to 65.33.224.199.
    Escape character is '^]'.
    Connection closed by foreign host.

    But it is really not a big deal to me, since all queries will be
    directed, with account already for them opened, with user, pwd, etc.

    I got the create-user script (the only one I could find there)
    http://scriptrepo.jabberstudio.org/jodb_createuser/
    Some comments aren't very encouraging. Do you know of any other script?

    In several places they state that in the configuration files it should
    say "jabber.domain-name.com" In other places it is not clear. Does it
    mean that a whole subdomain must be established in the DNS records for
    jabber? Or just localhost everywhere should suffice (at least in my
    configuration case, w/o other servers communication)?

    I completely agree with this. Just look at the very recent history for
    examples.
    Thanks,
