i recently started running xmonad as my WM, so i thought i'd give bitlbee a go. i've installed weechat and bitlbee, and i followed the instructions on this wiki page: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bitlbee . but in weechat, "/connect 127.0.0.1" gives
[17:03:40] =!= WeeChat Error: server "127.0.0.1" not found
[17:03:40] =!= WeeChat Error: command "connect" failed
.per the wiki, i have
> cat /etc/xinetd.d/bitlbee ~
service bitlbee
{
type = UNLISTED
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = bitlbee
group = bitlbee
server = /usr/sbin/bitlbee
port = 6667
disable = no
}
and
> cat /etc/hosts.allow ~
#
# /etc/hosts.allow
#
bitlbee: 127.0.0.1
# End of file
and "sudo /etc/rc.d/xinetd start" gave a reassuring "DONE". can anyone help me troubleshoot?

/usr/sbin/bitlbee is the correct path, right?
And user and group bitlbee exist ?

yes: "which bitlbee" comes back with "/usr/sbin/bitlbee", and there are lines for bitlbee in /etc/passwd and /etc/group.

Has /var/lib/bitlbee and the files there the appropriate permissions?
# ls -lah /var/lib/bitlbee/
total 16K
drwxrwx--- 2 bitlbee bitlbee 4.0K 2007-12-08 10:59 .

I followed the instruction on Bitlbees webpage and that worked like a charm for me. I didn't need to make any changes to the default configs. Anyway, try connecting to im.bitlbee.org instead of localhost.

Everything ended up working fine for me just following the instructions here at the wiki. I wonder what's making it different for you"?
