Cisco ASA and PIX Firewall Handbook

I have IM accounts on lots of different services. In the past, I had to run the AIM, MSN, and Yahoo! programs at the same time if I wanted to be logged in to all of them at once. Can GAIM keep me logged in to all of my accounts at the same time?

Yes. To keep multiple accounts open in GAIM, just add each of the accounts you use in the Accounts dialog box; then check the Online box next to each account.

To open the Accounts dialog box while you're already using GAIM, right-click on the GAIM icon at the upper right of the desktop menubar; then select Accounts from the context menu that appears.

Is there any way to browse windows workgroups or domains, similar to what happens when I double-click Network Neighborhood or My Network Places on a Windows host?

Yes. Choose Places, Network Servers to browse the entire Windows network for hosts.
