Yes, but they register with the main server's stanza handler set as contained in the main ProtocolWorker (extends StanzaProcessor). Components now can have their completely separate own set of handlers, see ComponentStanzaProcessor. > and live on the subdomain? No, they can't as 'modules' anymore. They can only as 'components'. Or the other way round: Modules which are not components cannot live on their own subdomain. Thanks for asking, this is important stuff to have publicly said. Will have to go into docs and javadocs at some point... Bernd
