SASL plain authentication -> No response from the server (smack 3.0.4)

Hi,

i have read a couple of threads about gmail authentication (![http://www.igniterealtime.org/issues/images/icons/bug.gif!] ~~SMACK-224~~ - related) - but it didn't help me unfortunately ..

i'm trying to authenticate with gmx (gmx.at) but no combination of sasl authentication, plain sasl authentication, non-sasl authentication, security mode disabled, enabled, etc. seems to work

packets sent:

tag .. - but maybe it simply uses another auth protocol .. i have no idea about that stuff unfortunately )

thanks,

herbert

What are you trying to do? I use gmx for email, and I'm not aware that they provide a XMPP (jabber) service at all (and I went to look again).

You can't send/receive emails with smack.

  lol, yeah .. i didn't know it either (although i've never used gmx) - before a user told me that my IM won't work for gmx's jabber server..
  but see here: https://stpeter.im/?p=1866
  
  or simply ask nc:
  kahless@localhost ~ $ nc gmx.at 5222
  
  kahless@localhost ~ $
  
  so .. my question remains .. am i doing something wrong ? how can i connect to the gmx.* jabber servers with smack ? (PSI can do it, others probably too)
  
  should i provide an example code or something ?
  
  thanks,
  herbert

    Hah, you learn something new everyday.
    
    Ok, to connect using plain-text and no SASL, I use
    // turn off SASL conConfig.setSASLAuthenticationEnabled(false); // allow plain text conConfig.setSecurityMode( ConnectionConfiguration.SecurityMode.enabled);
    
    And you say you tried it... All that's left is to ask the guys that run the server at GMX...
    I still can't find any trace of it on GMX, is it about the MultiMessenger? In which case they might be adapting the protocol to a more proprietary thing...
    
    On heise.de, the commentaries mention it only works with new email accounts, not old ones.

      I am already using the settings which you mentioned here.I am using smack 3.1.0. However, while authenicating with NonSASLAuthentication.authenticate() method, i get this message of "No response from the server." after the IQ packet is sent to get the list of authentication protocols. What could be the problem ?
      
      // turn off SASL
      conConfig.setSASLAuthenticationEnabled(false);
      
      // allow plain text
      conConfig.setSecurityMode( ConnectionConfiguration.SecurityMode.enabled);
