I've created a JECL xdb component using an existing Sybase 
backend to replace the Jabber 1.4.2 xdb_file module. 
Everything seems to be working fine, but now I need to move 
it into production. While testing, I responded to all 
jabber:iq:auth requests with password 'password' to make my 
life easier. Now, I'm returning the actual passwords stored 
in the database. These passwords are not clear text, but 
crypted with a salt value. First off, oddly enough, it 
appears that I can continue to use the password 'password' 
successfully!? I think the authorization is really being 
handled by the jabber:iq:auth:0k response instead?

My assumption was that I would just need to modify some jsm 
auth module to crypt the clear text password passed by the 
client to see if it matches the crypted password returned by 
my xdb component for jabber:iq:auth. Is this true? If so, 
what module (mod_auth_plain, etc.)? Do I really need the 
jabber:iq:auth:0k if I use this approach?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Ryan
