 Hey Fixxxer,

 Are you actually able to send and receive IMs to/from other clients?  I'm
 unable to with OCS 2007.

 From what I can tell, we need to be signing all messages we send to the
 server after we authenticate.  Do you agree?  (See my comment #127 for the
 pointer to the Microsoft docs where they make it clear this is needed).

 I've been looking into the GSS-API with the goal of getting the get_mic
 method working to be able to sign the messages.  It's a pretty complicated
 API that I'm trying to wrap my head around, without much luck so far in
 getting anything to work.  DJFlux got the Kerberos authentication working
 with the krb5 API, but I'm trying to figure out how that relates
 to/interoperates with (if at all) the GSS API.  If anybody has advice or
 help, it'd be quite appreciated.

 Thanks,

 Gabriel
