I just installed a jabber server, using my existing web-cyradm environment to 
use the same accounts. This was quick and dirty, less than 30 minutes on SuSE 
9.3. This is my "Quick Install on SuSE" guide:

Prerequisite: Web-Cyradm working...

1) Download and install 
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.3/suse/i586/jabberd-2.0cvs20050111-3.i586.rpm
2) cd /etc/jabberd
3) Edit c2s.xml:
Change your hostname to your fqdn in <id>myhostname</id>
Change <module>pam</module>
and 
<register>
      <!-- Account registration is enabled by default (provided the
           auth/reg module in use supports it). Comment this out to
           disable. -->
    <!--   <enable/> -->
4) Edit sm.xml
*Change your hostname to your fqdn in in <id>myhostname</id>
*I decide to use Berkley BD, you also might configure the mysql backend:
<driver>db</driver>

*Allow users sessions to be autocreated. 

<user>
   
    <auto-create/>
......
  </user>

Users can't sign up using jabber, they have to be created with web-cyradm. 
After successfull login jabberd has to 

4) cp /etc/pam.d/imap /etc/pam.d/jabberd

rcjabberd start

Done

The only ugly part is the long jabber-ids: As my usernames are 
myname.mydomain.com their jabber id is 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Best wishes

Enrique
