I'm trying to chat with a friend that has a Google Talk account. I've created an account and added it to Adium but I get "Error: Host Unknown". How do I get this working?

should just work. Just choose GTalk from the menu and enter your login\password.

I've now found several other posts online from people having the same problem, but have yet to find a solution.

dtx, does it work for you? It might even be something at Google's end for all I know.

Edit: I'm getting the same error from Palringo on my iPod and eBuddy on my phone. Looks like a server error.
