You don't need anything. Gaim *is*a jabber client. So to connect to your 
jabber server you use your hostname or 'localhost' as the server. But, if 
you could not figure that out yourself, you may want to rethink running a 
jabber server, and just use one of the existing ones like jabber.org. Again 
you should be able to to gaim for that.
