Hi, I've been looking at various XMPP servers and I am trying to find one that is flexible in the authentication methods it offers to different IPs/domains.
For example, my XMPP server requires other XMPP Servers to encrypt using SSL and to authenticate using SASL DIGEST-MD5 or SASL GSSAPI. However as an admin, I fully trust the XMPP server A.com and I want to allow it to connect with no security, say via Server Dialback, or using SASL ANONYMOUS or EXTERNAL. However perhaps I also trust another Server B.com but I am worried about eavesdropping between servers, so I require B.com to connect via Server Dialback and SSL. Does Jabberd2 allow this kind of authentication/IP filtering? I guess in a way, its a more advanced form of XEP-0178<http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0178.html>, in that different authentication methods are offered based on some criteria(valid certs in this case). I see that Jabberd2 implements XEP-0178, its one of the first xmpp servers I've found that does, so I'm hoping it can also do what I am asking. Also could you tell me if XEP-0178 is implemented in the background, or is it something the admin can control? Any help is much appreciated, Thanks, Wayne
