GAIM is complaining about not having SSL, which means I can't use MSN. But the Drexel servers use SSL, and I can connect fine with Thunderbird. I also tried recompiling GAIM with [the below] like gaim.sf.net/faq-ssl.php says, but no luck...
./configure --with-nss-includes=/usr/include/mozilla-1.4/nss \
--with-nspr-includes=/usr/include/mozilla-1.4/nspr \
--with-nss-libs=/usr/lib/mozilla-1.4 \
--with-nspr-libs=/usr/lib/mozilla-1.4
Most slackware distributions come with OpenSSL installed, I think, but did you try installing it?
Can you use SSH?
It runs, but I have no SSH server to connect to...but like I said, Thunderbird handles SSL fine.

It might be using another implementation of it, though. Try finding where OpenSSL was installed and specifying it with ./configure options?
Yeah, I've had issues with that before. The easiest way is just to download a Gaim package (either from Slackware's site or linuxpackages.net). I forget how I got Gaim working :)
Haha, I just downloaded the source. It worked fine for me. I have it on my laptop and desktop.
