1 Understanding iChat Service

Mac OS X iChat service provides secure instant messaging for

users supported by Mac OS X Server.

iChat is a service that permits users to collaborate by chatting and sharing information

using instant messaging and data transfer. This real-time interaction between computer

users promotes collaboration without the delay of mail responses and blog postings or

the expense of telephone communication or face-to-face meetings.

This collaboration might include:

Â Brainstorming solutions, making plans, reporting progress, and exchanging design

images

Â Exchanging weblinks and files for use as real-time references, or for follow-up

viewing

Â Generating iChat transcripts when you want a written record of interactions without

taking notes

Â Conducting weekly staff or project meetings, which can also facilitate collaboration

among geographically-dispersed team members

Â Using built-in computer microphones for audio chat

Â Using video cameras for videoconferencing—a direct, personal, and engaging form

of collaboration.

How iChat Works

iChat provides secure person-to-person instant messaging and chat-room services

using standard Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) which is found in

many instant-messaging servers such as Google Talk, Wildfire, and Jabber.

The core of iChat is open source Jabber v2.0, which provides user-presence information

(status, icons, and so on) and basic text-message exchange between users or groups

(via chat rooms). iChat chat-room features are provided transparently by the Jabber

Multi-User (MU) conference module.
