Sorry if this has been asked before but I can't find the answer.

I had been using iChat on my iMac G5 until I needed a new mac so decided to keep the iMac as a file server and bought a mbp.

I use the mbp for everything now and it's not often I use the iMac for iChat anymore, but I did try tonight.

Anyway, the thing is my buddy lists are different. The new buddies I have added on the mbp don't show up in the buddy list on the iMac. I would have thought it would work like MSN with buddies stored on the server and the buddy list would be the same whatever machine you login with.

I have mobile me so everything else is synced up, I thought it strange iChat wasn't synced.

Is this just the way iChat works or do I have a problem?

Cheers
