Managing iChat
In this section you learn about day-to-day tasks you might perform after you set up
iChat on your server. Initial setup information appears in “Setting up iChat” on page 19.
Setting Access Control for iChat
You can control who can use iChat using Open Directory authentication and iChat
service access settings. Keep in mind the following:
 Only a user or group defined in the Open Directory search path can use iChat. You
can permit or restrict access to iChat by adding or removing users and groups to an
Open Directory search path.
For more information about Open Directory and how to use Workgroup Manager to
add users to the Open Directory, see Open Directory Administration and User
Management.
 SACLs enable you to specify who has access to iChat. This provides you with greater
control over who can use the service and the administrators who have access to
monitor and manage the service. iChat requires that authenticated users belong to
the iChat SACL.
For information about setting iChat service access for users and groups, see “Setting
SACL Permissions for Users and Groups” on page 22.
For information about setting iChat service access for administrators, see “Setting
SACL Permissions for Administrators” on page 23.
 Users created in Workgroup Manager must be added to the iChat SACL (using Server
Admin), before they can log into iChat.
Setting SACL Permissions for Users and Groups
Use Server Admin to set SACL permissions for users and groups to access iChat.
To set user and group SACL permissions for iChat:
1 Open Server Admin and connect to the server.
2 Click Settings.
3 Click Access.
4 Click Services.
