Re: [JDEV] Pam support for Jabber 1.4.2
I did update the PAM patch from the contrib area to work with jabber-1.4.2 and I seem to remember emailing it to Peter Saint-Andre so he could include it at: http://download.jabber.org/contrib/. Guess it never made it. I still have it available on my site though: http://www.snoogans.co.uk/jabber/files/jabber-1.4.2-pam.README http://www.snoogans.co.uk/jabber/files/jabber-1.4.2-pam.tar.gz Although I then went on to provide a better authentication mechanism for Jabber using the official XDB check Authentication method as described at: http://jabberd.jabberstudio.org/1.4/142changelog.html You can download the code at: http://www.snoogans.co.uk/jabber/index.htm#xdb_auth_cpile It also supports IMAP, LDAP, MYSQL, PAM, POP3, RADIUS and SMB authentication. I did hear a rumour that xdb_auth_cpile was going to be mentioned in the jabber docs, but not sure. Thanks, Chris Pile. Ian Reinhart Geiser wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Greetings After poking around on various servers I found that there seemed to be no easy way to use pam to authenticate a jabber user. So I went ahead and cleaned up some existing work to make a mod_auth_pam.c that fits right into the existing build and source tree. Currently it consists of a small patch and the mod_auth_pam.c file. I am willing to clean this up and maintain this code, but I am unsure of how this is to get included into jabber source, or even if its allowed for that matter. If someone would be kind enough to point me in the direction of protocol for this I would be very pleased. I have tested this patch so far on linux (suse and debian) and solaris 8. It seems to work just fine, and am using it quite effectively with a 800 user NT network where the linux box running the jabber server is using smb_auth in pam. This was key because this instalation is a school and they wanted a place for students to chat, but did not want to install and maintain a whole new server. Using jabber and these patches they had a dropin solution.

With MU-Conference, you can. Its a new conference system I released today, based on JEP-0045 (http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0045.html) If you send a room configuration request to a room that doesn't exist, the room is created and the configuration form is returned to you. The problem is that normal rooms get deleted after ~5 minutes of being empty, so you'll want to enable the 'persistent' option. This will mean the room exists, even if the server is restarted. The room creator can then just destroy the room when they've finished with it. Regards, David On Sun, Nov 03, 2002 at

Yes. Adding DC is very easy. But AFAICS JIT uses a rather heavily modified libicq2000 without sigslots and all that? NO. Changes are only in I/O layer and I removed very slow sigslots.

Re: [JDEV] Karma settings question
I believe the karma tag can only be applied in this way to components that are loaded into the server via the load mechanism, ie. shared objects (.so) instead of external programs that connect over a socket. The way to do what you want is to specify your component's karma levels in the io section of the jabber.xml file (global default karma levels, make them high). Then in the c2s and s2s service definitions you place lower karma limits so that users cannot abuse the service. -R ___ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev

[JDEV] clarification needed in hashtable implementation
Hi All, I am looking at jabberd 1.4.2 sources. I cannot understand the following section. In the file jabberd/lib/hashtable.c, In this method, NAMED lookup(HASH_TABLE *table, KEY name, size_t createSize) The else portion(if table-size is non zero), We try to lookup the name from the bucket index i. If we did not locate one we look it up at bucket index i-1 if i!=0, else we make i = table-size -1 and look up. This is as per my understanding is linear probing in open addressed hash table. How the code avoids revisiting the elements already probed? For example, I have 64 buckets, My starting bucket index happened to be 12, I look up at table-v[12] and then table-v[11] . table-v[0] and then table-v[63]...table-v[0].and repeatedly.
