I've seen references to jabber_autobuddy with the "-D" argument on other blogs as well, but using a fully patch 10.6.4 server, I get 'Invalid command argument "-D"' Regardless, I can't seem to add users from a bound ActiveDirectory domain. Other services allow users to authenticate via AD, as does the Jabber service. It's just the autobuddy feature that doesn't seem to work. Thanks for this excellent article.

I’ve seen references to jabber_autobuddy with the “-D” argument on other blogs as well, but using a fully patch 10.6.4 server, I get ‘Invalid command argument “-D”‘

Regardless, I can’t seem to add users from a bound ActiveDirectory domain. Other services allow users to authenticate via AD, as does the Jabber service. It’s just the autobuddy feature that doesn’t seem to work.

Just one minor issue, since I'm using a Snow Leopard server, the actual jabber_autobuddy command is: /usr/bin/jabber_autobuddy -V -m -D has depreciated in favor of the more common -V I also dumped the .plist here: /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ Rather than: /Library/LaunchDaemons Cheers, Brennan This really helped me out.

Run: serveradmin stop jabber /usr/bin/jabber_autobuddy -V -i @ /usr/bin/jabber_autobuddy -V -g (-m as you use) serveradmin start jabber I was just looking at this and there’s another simpler option…

Run:

serveradmin stop jabber
/usr/bin/jabber_autobuddy -V -i @
/usr/bin/jabber_autobuddy -V -g (-m as you use)
serveradmin start jabber
