It should work. Check 5269 and firewall

how to connect my server to already existing jabber servers to allow my users to chat with that servers users.

Jabber servers listen for other servers on port 5269. By default ejabberd.cfg is already properly configured. Make sure your server listens on that port. For example using telnet:

$ telnet jabber.example.org 5269
Trying 127.0.1.1...
Connected to atenea.pike.
Escape character is '^]'.

  <stream:error>
    <xml-not-well-formed xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-streams'/>
  </stream:error>
</stream:stream>
Connection closed by foreign host.

If your server is listening, but you can't still connect to other servers (and other can't with you), maybe it's a firewall problem. Do the telnet check on remote computers.

Also check the ejabberd log files, they may report errors.

I need to connect it to GoogleTalk, I read what it is possible but I cannot find any documentation how to do this.

GoogleTalk is just another Jabber server. Once you can connect to Jabber servers, you will also be able to connect to GoogleTalk.
