Once you download Psi, you'll need to
configure your client to connect to the Google Talk service. Here's how:
- Open Psi.
- Click the Psi symbol in the bottom-left corner, and select 'Account Setup.'
- Click 'Add' in the 'Psi: Jabber Accounts' window.
- Enter a name for your account in the 'Name:' field (we suggest 'Google Talk').
Also, make sure that the box next to 'Register new account' is not checked.
- Click 'Add.'
- Enter your full Gmail email address in the 'Jabber ID:' field (including
'@gmail.com').
- Open the 'Connection' tab.
- Check all boxes.
- Enter 'talk.google.com' in the 'Host:' field, and enter '5223' in the 'Port:' field (5222 will not work).
- Click 'Save.'
Congratulations! You are now ready to connect to the Google Talk service using Psi.
Once you've configured Psi to connect to the Google Talk service, you may receive a warning message that stating that the 'gmail.com certificate failed the authenticity test. This error message is incorrect; click 'Continue' to sign in.
