Red face Yahoo Messenger parameters in GAIM


I have recently installed SuSe 9.1. Using Gaim I can easily connect to my MSN Messenger, but I cannot connect to Yahoo messenger (damn sure that I have provided the username and password correct to yahoo login). Would anybody please tell me what are the entries in the following parameters in your Add / Edit Accounts --> Show More Options --> Yahoo Options...

1. Pager Host
2. Pager Port
3. File Transfer Host
4. File Transfer Port
5. Proxy Type

Please tell those to configure my Gaim properly.

Regards
anindyanuri

You might try updating GAIM as yahoo has been known to cavalierly change protocols to stop third-party clients from working.
