Comment:
I have no idea why you brought discussion of TLS certificates into this,
since that has no place here, the TLS connection is working fine (I assume
since you are getting to failing authentication).
No, setting xmpp.fqdn is not a hack (well it is, but not in the way you
meant it). Without it the openfire server is unaware that the fqdn for the
machine it lives on is different than the jid domain it is configured to
serve. This causes problems with many sasl authentication mechanisms which
need to know the specific entity they are authenticating with (for
external authentication information, etc.).
Look at ticket #5008 for another ticket on this.
I will state again for clarity, I firmly believe given my reading of the
digest-md5 sasl authentication rfc that what pidgin does now is correct
and that previous behaviour was wrong. Feel free to find sources to
dispute that if you want. Also, if you feel that the tls stuff is a
problem or that pidgin is incorrectly using the fqdn somewhere other than
what I indicated please include the snippet from the pidgin Debug Window
to illustrate your point.
