Well
Is complicated I only can achieve to get connection to MSN network being
root !!!!!
But that is dangerous, then meanwhile I am promoting use of yahoo.
Well the partial Solution
I am using amsn (alvaro messenger) looks like MSN of M$, but when I am
trying to use it
as 'myuser' the program does not run because of Authorization
problems
To be solved with xauth, but I have not been able to get the solution.
Meanwhile i use RedHat to conect with messenger network
You may find amsn in
This is the instructions for install, works fine in root (specially if you
have amsn 0.82 installed)
But when you try to use another user, get the xauth problems, if somebody
get solved please
tellme
Installation
Download amsn-0_xx.tar.gz
$ tar xvzf amsn-0_xx.tar.gz
$ cd msn
$ ./amsn
or
$ wish amsn
If command wish is not found, you need to install tcl/tk packages (tcl &
tk).
Best

I don't know about gaim, but may be there is an option to use with
configure, like with-ssl or similar.
Also, openssl-devel must be installed.
