Solved -- Trouble with Fedora 6 & ejabberd

Ok, first off hello everyone. I'm pretty new to the whole Linux world, so please keep that in mind when you answer.

Ok, my problem... I have a computer that was originally running fedora 4, which was also originally running ejabberd just fine. However, I upgraded it to Fedora 6 this morning, and now my users are unable to log in.

I've checked to make sure that the service is still running on the machine, which it is. I can also still log in through the web portal, so I know that my original accounts and passwords are still there. I can also still register new accounts through the client (PSI). When I attempt to login, however, I get this error message, "There was an error communicating with the Jabber server. Details: Disconnected."

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Ok, I seem to have fixed the problem. Apparently I needed to update the erlang package as well after upgrading to Fedora 6. I just assumed that it would be the correct version once I upgraded, but I guess I was wrong. I ran the command "yum upgrade erlang" and then stopped and started the ejabberd service. The upgrade command installed erlang-R11B-0.3.fc.
My users can now login. =)

No I haven't. How would I go about finding out who that is? Sorry, but like I said, I'm still learning the whole Linux thing.

Thanks
