Pymsnt for Debian
=================

Documentation
-------------

Server Administrator, User and Developer guides are available in
/usr/share/doc/pymsnt.

Setup
-----

Examples of how to connect pymsnt to jabberd, jabberd2 and ejabberd can be
found in the Server Administrator's guide, under 'Jabber Server Configuration'.

Avatars
-------

By default, pymsnt only works with avatars (AKA "display pictures") in PNG
format. If you install the python-imaging package then pymsnt will be able to
convert between PNG and other formats commonly used by MSN users.

Network issues
--------------

Luca Corti <luca@leenoox.net> reported that MSN's servers make use of the Don't
Fragment bit on their IP packets. If you scrub, normalise, etc. incoming traffic,
make sure you allow for this as you may run into strange connectivity problems
otherwise. See <http://bugs.debian.org/427075> for details.
