iChat Server is a component of Mac OS X Server from Apple Inc. It was first introduced with the release of version 10.4 of the server software, and was upgraded to version 2 with the release of Mac OS X Server 10.5 in October 2007.[1]
iChat Server was originally based on jabberd 1.4.3 and is named after Apple's iChat online chat client software.[2]
Version 2 of the software is based on jabberd2 2.0s9 and supports server federation[3], which allows chat clients to talk directly with other systems that support XMPP, such as Google Talk. It also supports server-based chat archiving.[4]
