[sf-lug] jabber & DNS / SRV problem

[Michael Paoli]

Have you tried something like:
_xmpp-server._tcp.domain.tld. IN SRV 5 0 5269 xmpp-server.l.google.com.
_jabber._tcp.domain.tld. IN SRV 5 0 5269 xmpp-server.l.google.com.

After all, it does say:
"
When you enter the following information, make sure to replace gmail.com with
your domain. Don't replace google.com.
"

Just a guess, anyway.
