iChat server and Adium

[brettd]

After playing “flip the switches until it works” with Adium and figuring out the magical combination (Jabber ID = account@server, Security = Use TLS, Force old-style SSL), I was happily messaging people on our iChat server BUT have been unable to set up a group chat room.

Rutgers has a guide (http://www.nbcs.rutgers.edu/newdocs/jabber/adium_jabber.php) but following their lead, as well as tweaking it in a variety of ways, did not yield a working group chat room- most of the time, Adium wouldn’t even add a tab in the discussion window. I also have been unable to connect to a chat room established with an iChat client.

Google searches haven’t been helpful; most of the results discuss using the iChat client to connect to a Jabber chatroom, etc.

Anyone successfully used Adium to either establish and/or connect to a group chat hosted on an non-Apple iChat server?

Thanks!
