Hi there, are you having a problems when trying to connect to your Yahoo Account through Pidgin or Kopete ? Because it happened to me. And, at that time, I tought that was an error from the Pidgin or Kopete. But later, when I read a post from a friend on the Facebook, I just knew what is the problem..
The problem is, at the Yahoo server. For some unknown reason, Yahoo has disabling the scs server. And now, we have to change that unavailable server to another valid server. I’ve trying a little complicated way to get that valid server. And, that was very waisting my time. What I’ve done is like these steps :
1. tracing the old server
2. then I found the another server, that beginning with cn.***.***
3. I’m curious with that server, so I got to the terminal, and type “host cn.***.***
4. then..wow…I’ve got four IP’s that connected to this server..
5. so, from that host IP, I ‘m trying my pager server with those IP…
6. and…gotcha…I can to connect to the Yahoo Chat through Pidgin or Kopete again
Maybe you should try that steps..or just simply change the server with “202.43.216.74“…
ha…ha…
so…simple, isn’t it?
