Q: iChat cannot login with Virtual Domains on Lion Server

Hey there,

I've got an issue with the iChat server in the latest Mac OS Lion Server version. I've enabled the server in Server.app and configured two virtual domains with the following command:

sudo serveradmin settings jabber:hostsCommaDelimitedString = "example.de,example.com"

In Workgroup Manager.app in configured a user account to have to jabber chat accounts (in Info -> Chat):

hello@example.de
hello@example.com

This seemed to work with previous versions. When I now try to login with one of the accounts I get the error that the ID or password is wrong.

The only additional information I could find was this entries inside the logs of the server:

05.04.12 14:14:18,791 jabberd/c2s: [11] [::ffff:10.0.1.148, port=58925] connect

This text is posted as it was, including the username: ? part. I assume it's kind of related to that.

After lookin at https://discussions.apple.com/message/10898562 I disabled digest-md5 in the configuration and got the following additional information from the logs:

05.04.12 14:35:40,896 jabberd/c2s: [9] [::ffff:10.0.1.148, port=59097] connect

Anyone else experienced the same issue? Any ideas on how to solve it?

Thank you very much for your time
