Os X Server 10.6.5 Server Admin iChat not Editable

Question

Hello All,
I upgraded my server to the most recent release 10.6.5. Previously my Ichat (or so I thought) was set correctly and we modifiable in Server Admin. ONce I updated all fields are greyed out and un-editable. I tried to reinitialize the plist with the PlistBuddy option suggested in this forum with no success.
Here is the output to changeip -checkhostname
bash-3.2$ sudo changeip -checkhostname
Password:
Primary address = 192.168.1.210
Current HostName = appleXserver.local
The DNS hostname is not available, please repair DNS and re-run this tool.
dirserv:success = "success"
This is obviously wrong. appleXerver.local is the local name of the server. This was working before the update. In server admin it shows that 192.168.1.210 resolves to server.679ave.com. (FDNQ) as it should.
The name server that the primary zone 679ave.com. points to is dns.679ave.com.
Any suggestions? Why did this change (did I have a bug to begin with?).

Answer 1

ok figured out the dns problem...looks like in the system preferences the dns wasn't setup after the update. now sudo changeip -checkhostname gives
bash-3.2$ sudo changeip -checkhostname
Password:
Primary address = 192.168.1.210
Current HostName = server.679ave.com
DNS HostName = server.679ave.com
The names match. There is nothing to change.
dirserv:success = "success"
bash-3.2$
now sudo serveradmin settings jabber gives
bash-3.2$ sudo serveradmin settings jabber
Password:
jabber:s2sRestrictDomains = no
jabber:authLevel = "ANYMETHOD"
jabber:savedChatsLocation = "/var/jabberd/message_archives"
jabber:dataLocation = ""
jabber:enableAutoBuddy = yes
jabber:enableXMPP = yes
jabber:sslKeyFile = "/etc/certificates/server.679ave.com.7C3ACC0386ADFDE3A70C53C861BFA1BC85281421.c oncat.pem"
jabber:initialized = yes
jabber:logLevel = "ALL"
jabber:sslCAFile = "/etc/certificates/server.679ave.com.7C3ACC0386ADFDE3A70C53C861BFA1BC85281421.c hain.pem"
jabber:requireSecureS2S = no
jabber:serviceMode = "ALL"
jabber:savedChatsArchiveInterval = 7
jabber:jabberdDatabasePath = "/private/var/jabberd/sqlite/jabberd2.db"
jabber:hosts:arrayindex:0 = "server.679ave.com"
jabber:eventLogArchiveInterval = 7
jabber:enableSavedChats = yes
jabber:s2sAllowedDomains = emptyarray
bash-3.2$
My ichat is now up and running again too!
