[Kopete] Winpopup protocol

I use the winpopup protocol in my network with Linpopup. Since Kopete 0.12 adds support for it I though about removing Linpopup but I have problems making it work, I can send messages but I not receive them.
- Samba is configured correctly since Linpopup worked
- I made the needed changes to work with Kopete. And everything looks correct, winpopup-send.sh makes his work:

# ls -l

But Kopete doesn't gives signals of working. When messages are received Kopete doesn't shows them.

Since I never before used winpopup with Kopete I 'm not sure if is a bug or my fault, but... any idea? Exactly what search for Kopete to show a message?

You just need to add winpopup pseudo-account to Kopete. (just Kopete Main window -> Settings -> Configure.. -> Accounts -> New...)

You should version 0.12 or later, but it looks you already have it, since you have a winpopup-send.sh script)

Tell me it it worked.

Well I just tried again and now works. I'm not sure about what was the problem, now I have an updated Kopete 0.12.1 package.
But perhaps the problem was that I used the config from the wiki that says to use the "%m" parameter, but samba man says:

Quoted

This parameter is not available when Samba listens on port 445, as clients no longer send this information

And well, I'm listening on port 445 ;)

Sorry, it's late and I haven't time to test.
