Kopete/Jabber/Fill in your account data in Kopete/da

Nu har du en konto på en Jabber-server og Kopete går til Trin nummer to: Konto-information. Kopete indfører automatisk dit Jabber-ID og din adgangskode i de respektive felter. Hvis du vil have Kopete til at huske din adgangskode, sådan at du ikke skal skrive den, hver gang du forbinder til din server, så markér Husk adgangskode.

Hvis du ønsker at bruge en eksisterende konto på Google Talk eller Facebook chat i Kopete (disse er faktisk også Jabber-servere), så brug din GMail-adresse eller data for din facebook-konto (forklaret her) til at forbinde til disse servere.

Du kan eventuelt markere Ekskludér fra at forbinde i det hele taget. Dette afholder Kopete fra at forbinde til denne server, når du forbinder til alle dine Kopete-konti (da Kopete er en multimessenger, som understøtter mange andre protokoller som ICQ eller MSN). Hvis du markerer dette tilvalg, så skal du efterfølgende udtrykkeligt vælge at gå online for denne konto, hver gang du vil forbinde til din server.

Dit Kopete skulle nu se sådan ud:

Account information window

Click on the Tab Connection to check additional options. Especially selecting Use protocol encryption and the unselection of Allow plain-text password authentification should be chosen for basic security reasons.

The default server information should be okay, if you are in a normal home network without special firewall configuration.

The section Location Settings is another specialty of Jabber: You can set so-called "Resources" to identify where you chat from. For example if you log in to Jabber from your mobile phone and your notebook at the same time (yes, you can do that) the resource explains your contacts where you are. So you could call it "Notebook" or "Android", depending on which device you're installing Kopete. Remember that your resources can be seen from your chat partners (they will be added to the JID like this: romeo@montague.net/Notebook), so you might consider privacy issues while choosing your resource name.

In our example, the Resource will be set to Laptop. The priority is mainly useful when you handle multiple devices and tells your partner's client which of your devices being online at the moment (e.g. your mobile phone or your laptop) to contact in this case. The highest priority number of your resources being online receives the message.

Set the account configuration

The next Tab, File Transfer, is normally not affected when setting up a Jabber account in a normal network.

Finally, there are some privacy configurations in the tab Privacy, they are mostly self-explanatory. The option Use old inline PGP format for signed and encrypted messages (read here what PGP means) is not recommended, because there exists a method to do this with the built-in OTR, which will be explained later in this tutorial.

At this point you can click Next again and your account is configured now. You can choose an optional color for your account and when you feel ready to connect the very first time to your Jabber server, the checkbox Connect now has to be ticked.

Last step of configuration

Now you can finish the configuration.

Otherwise you can manually connect to the server by clicking Status -> Online in the Kopete main window or by right-clicking the Kopete symbol in your tray and selecting Set status -> Online. If you chose the option Exclude from connect all earlier, you will have to log in by right-clicking on the Kopete tray icon and selecting yourJID@example.org -> Online.
