| | 24 | <p>As part of our transition to a new server, we will be using different software for our Jabber service which uses the same authentication method as most of the other services.</p> |
| | 25 | <p>In particular, this means:</p> |
| | 26 | <ul> |
| | 27 | <li>All members will automatically get Jabber accounts - no need to register.</li> |
| | 28 | <li>Your Jabber password will be the same as your other passwords, i.e., the one you use to log in to the workstations in the room and check your email. If your client saves your password, remember to change it when you first connect to the new server.</li> |
| | 29 | <li>Non-members will lose their Jabber accounts.</li> |
| | 30 | <li>Any members whose Jabber username is different to their system username will ALSO lose their accounts. E.g., if your email address is johnsmith@sucs.org and your Jabber address is john@sucs.org, you'll lose the latter (but you will automatically get the Jabber address johnsmith@sucs.org).</li> |
| | 31 | </ul> |
| | 32 | |
| | 33 | <p>If the last point will affect you, please send |
| | 34 | an email to admin@sucs.org telling us your system and Jabber usernames and |
| | 35 | we'll see that your data gets transferred to your system username.</p> |
