Hi,
I'm a newbie with SER (0.8.11 under FreeeBSD 4.9) and there are many points
that I can't resolve:
- I didn't find where SER store my "Windows Messenger 5.0 contact list" :
file ? sql database ? (I have read something about a "Contacts table" !? no
exist for me in the DB.
The server doesn't store the contact list of your client. The contact
list is kept in the client itself.
- when a user open a session, he receive the status of
their contacts but
they will see him online only after nearly 10 mn (timeout problem ?).
No, that's a drawback of the presence model used by MS Messenger. Your
messenger sends SUBSCRIBE to presentities on your contact list to
learn the current state of the presentity. When a presentity is
offline then the request fails and your client retries later.
During that period you see the contact offline although he might have
become online meanwhile. You see the contact online when your client
sends another SUBSCRIBE.
- when I use another pc, I can't get my
"Windows Messenger 5.0 contact
list" back...
That's because the contact list is stored in the client.
