I was asked today to set up an IM server for internal use, originally they were specifying Windows messanger but I was able to suggest we try a proper standards based system instead
So I need a server, a few clicks in the Proxmox interface ( a rather nice way of handling OpenVZ virtualisation) [...]

It seems my disk had a couple of errors on it and thus [...]
