No, becouse first i set second host and than start it. Second host wasn't visible.

AFAIK, ejabberd is automatically started by the installer, so you first have to stop it.

Strange... when my os starts and if i write "./status" i got the message simillar to that error from slackware about RPM... and server is not running. If i write :./start" than it runs. Whats wrong? Are U shure that ejabberd shall be started on boot?

And what about RPM on slackware? "Slack" do not use rpm-s so what it means this error which i was written above?

In truth i donot know, i just "click" on *.bin file and that is it. I do not set any permissions to any files. Where should I do it and how?

It is not that important, but if you install as root, I believe the Bitrock installer can register ejabberd in SUSE's RPM database which means that you can remove it from the package manager of SUSE.

Yes, but problems with RPM error is when I try to install on Slackware 10

yes i know that but what are they for if i install from *.bin file?

The binary installers for Linux and Mac OS X include a stripped down version of Erlang/OTP, and other libraries, so that it can work out of the box on each system. So they are used to run ejabberd.

I run server typing ./start Where they create those icons?

These scripts are not executed by the start script, but by the Bitrock installer. These icons should be visible in ~/Desktop/ when you run Linux.

Well I set it during installation, when installer ask about hostname I write: wassup-l.site, jabber.wassup-l.site

AFAIK you can only specify one hostname in the installer. Try to enter only one host during installation and add the other host afterwards in the configuration file (see documentation).

postinstall.sh, preinstal.sh? how i can use it and what for?

The .sh files are scripts used by the installer to create the icons for instance. In short: you do not need to do anything with these files, but they are needed to install or run ejabberd.

I run server typing ./start Where they create those icons?

Did the installer had root access to register the RPM file?

after that i can't enter "admin interface".
choosing: ./start it seems it's ok but
choosing: ./status i got:
"/opt/ejabberd-1.1.1/bin/ejabberdctl: line 4: jabber.wassup-l.site (which is my second host): command not found

Looks like you didn't configured the second host right. How did you tried to add the second host? Did you looked at the documentation?
