MobileMe: Setting up and troubleshooting secure iChat

MobileMe enhances iChat in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard by providing a means for creating secure chat interactions between MobileMe subscribers. In a secure chat text, audio, or video chat, all data transferred in the chat is encrypted. To use this safeguard, you and your chat buddy must both have MobileMe memberships and enable Secure Chat.When both you and your chat buddy have MobileMe Secure iChat enabled and you start a chat, a lock icon appears in the upper-right corner of the iChat window. Text, audio and video are encrypted on your computer, sent across the Internet encrypted, and are not decrypted until they reach your buddy’s computer.

TELEPATHY-SALUT(8)						  D-Bus services						TELEPATHY-SALUT(8)

NAME
telepathy-salut - Telepathy connection manager for link-local XMPP SYNOPSIS
/usr/libexec/telepathy-salut DESCRIPTION
Salut implements the Telepathy D-Bus specification for link-local XMPP (XEP-0174, often called "Bonjour"), allowing Telepathy clients like empathy(1) to communicate with other implementations of link-local XMPP, such as iChat. It also extends the protocol to support multicast- based chat rooms and collaboration. It is a D-Bus service which runs on the session bus, and should usually be started automatically by D-Bus activation. However, it might be useful to start it manually for debugging. OPTIONS
There are no command-line options. ENVIRONMENT
SALUT_LOGFILE=filename If set, debug output will go to the given file rather than to stderr. SALUT_DEBUG=type May be set to "all" for full debug output, or various undocumented options (which may change from release to release) to filter the output. GIBBER_DEBUG=type May be set to "all" for full debug output from the Gibber XMPP library used by Salut, or various undocu- mented options (which may change from release to release) to filter the output.
