\subsection{\aname{obtaining}{Obtaining \ejabberd{}}}
|
|
\label{sec:obtaining}
|
|
|
|
\ind{download}
|
|
Released versions of \ejabberd{} can be obtained from \\
|
|
\ahrefurl{http://www.process-one.net/en/projects/ejabberd/download.html}.
|
|
|
|
\ind{Subversion repository}
|
|
The latest development version can be retrieved from the Subversion repository\@.
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
svn co http://svn.process-one.net/ejabberd/trunk ejabberd
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{\aname{compile}{Compilation}}
|
|
\label{sec:compile}
|
|
\ind{installation!compilation}
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\aname{compileunix}{`Unix-like' operating systems}}
|
|
\label{sec:compileunix}
|
|
|
|
Compile \ejabberd{} on a `Unix-like' operating system by executing:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
su
|
|
make install
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
These commands will:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item install \ejabberd{} into the directory \verb|/var/lib/ejabberd|,
|
|
\item install the configuration file into \verb|/etc/ejabberd|,
|
|
\item create a directory called \verb|/var/log/ejabberd| to store log files.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
Note: if you want to use an external database, you need to execute the configure
|
|
script with the option(s) \term{--enable-odbc} or \term{--enable-odbc
|
|
--enable-mssql}. See section~\ref{sec:database} for more information.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\aname{compilewin}{Windows}}
|
|
\label{sec:compilewin}
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Install Erlang emulator (for example, into \verb|C:\Program Files\erl5.3|).
|
|
\item Install Expat library into \verb|C:\Program Files\Expat-1.95.7|
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
Copy file \verb|C:\Program Files\Expat-1.95.7\Libs\libexpat.dll|
|
|
to your Windows system directory (for example, \verb|C:\WINNT| or
|
|
\verb|C:\WINNT\System32|)
|
|
\item Build and install the Iconv library into the directory
|
|
\verb|C:\Program Files\iconv-1.9.1|.
|
|
|
|
Copy file \verb|C:\Program Files\iconv-1.9.1\bin\iconv.dll| to your
|
|
Windows system directory (more installation instructions can be found in the
|
|
file README.woe32 in the iconv distribution).
|
|
|
|
Note: instead of copying libexpat.dll and iconv.dll to the Windows
|
|
directory, you can add the directories
|
|
\verb|C:\Program Files\Expat-1.95.7\Libs| and
|
|
\verb|C:\Program Files\iconv-1.9.1\bin| to the \verb|PATH| environment
|
|
variable.
|
|
\item While in the directory \verb|ejabberd\src| run:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
configure.bat
|
|
nmake -f Makefile.win32
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item Edit the file \verb|ejabberd\src\ejabberd.cfg| and run
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
werl -s ejabberd -name ejabberd
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
%TODO: how to compile database support on windows?
|
|
|
|
\subsection{\aname{start}{Starting}}
|
|
\label{sec:start}
|
|
\ind{starting}
|
|
%TODO: update when the ejabberdctl script is made more userfriendly
|
|
|
|
Execute the following command to start \ejabberd{}:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
erl -pa /var/lib/ejabberd/ebin -name ejabberd -s ejabberd
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
or
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
erl -pa /var/lib/ejabberd/ebin -sname ejabberd -s ejabberd
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
In the latter case the Erlang node will be identified using only the first part
|
|
of the host name, i.\,e. other Erlang nodes outside this domain cannot contact
|
|
this node.
|
|
|
|
Note that when using the above command, \ejabberd{} will search for the
|
|
configuration file in the current directory and will use the current directory
|
|
for storing its user database and for logging.
|
|
|
|
To specify the path to the configuration file, the log files and the Mnesia
|
|
database directory, you may use the following command:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
erl -pa /var/lib/ejabberd/ebin \
|
|
-sname ejabberd \
|
|
-s ejabberd \
|
|
-ejabberd config \"/etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg\" \
|
|
log_path \"/var/log/ejabberd/ejabberd.log\" \
|
|
-sasl sasl_error_logger \{file,\"/var/log/ejabberd/sasl.log\"\} \
|
|
-mnesia dir \"/var/lib/ejabberd/spool\"
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
You can find other useful options in the Erlang manual page
|
|
(\shell{erl -man erl}).
|
|
|
|
To use more than 1024 connections, you should set the environment variable
|
|
\verb|ERL_MAX_PORTS|:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
export ERL_MAX_PORTS=32000
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
Note that with this value, \ejabberd{} will use more memory (approximately 6\,MB
|
|
more).
|
|
|
|
To reduce memory usage, you may set the environment variable
|
|
\verb|ERL_FULLSWEEP_AFTER|:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
export ERL_FULLSWEEP_AFTER=0
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
But in this case \ejabberd{} can start to work slower.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\section{\aname{basicconfig}{Basic Configuration}}
|
|
\label{sec:basicconfig}
|
|
\ind{configuration file}
|
|
|
|
The configuration file will be loaded the first time you start \ejabberd{}. The
|
|
content from this file will be parsed and stored in a database. Subsequently the
|
|
configuration will be loaded from the database and any commands in the
|
|
configuration file are appended to the entries in the database. The
|
|
configuration file contains a sequence of Erlang terms. Lines beginning with a
|
|
\term{`\%'} sign are ignored. Each term is a tuple of which the first element is
|
|
the name of an option, and any further elements are that option's values. If the
|
|
configuration file do not contain for instance the `hosts' option, the old
|
|
host name(s) stored in the database will be used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can override the old values stored in the database by adding next lines to
|
|
the configuration file:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
override_global.
|
|
override_local.
|
|
override_acls.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
With these lines the old global options, local options and ACLs will be removed
|
|
before new ones are added.
|
|
|
|
\subsection{\aname{hostnames}{Host Names}}
|
|
\label{sec:hostnames}
|
|
\ind{options!hosts}\ind{host names}
|
|
|
|
The option \option{hosts} defines a list containing one or more domains that
|
|
\ejabberd{} will serve.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Serving one domain:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{hosts, ["example.org"]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item Serving one domain, and backwards compatible with older \ejabberd{}
|
|
versions:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host, "example.org"}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item Serving two domains:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{hosts, ["example.net", "example.com"]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{\aname{virtualhost}{Virtual Hosting}}
|
|
\label{sec:virtualhost}
|
|
\ind{virtual hosting}\ind{virtual hosts}\ind{virtual domains}
|
|
|
|
Options can be defined separately for every virtual host using the
|
|
\term{host\_config} option.\ind{options!host\_config} It has the following
|
|
syntax:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host_config, <hostname>, [<option>, <option>, ...]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Domain \jid{example.net} is using the internal authentication method while
|
|
domain \jid{example.com} is using the \ind{LDAP}LDAP server running on the
|
|
domain \jid{localhost} to perform authentication:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host_config, "example.net", [{auth_method, internal}]}.
|
|
|
|
{host_config, "example.com", [{auth_method, ldap},
|
|
{ldap_servers, ["localhost"]},
|
|
{ldap_uids, [{"uid"}]},
|
|
{ldap_rootdn, "dc=localdomain"},
|
|
{ldap_rootdn, "dc=example,dc=com"},
|
|
{ldap_password, ""}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item Domain \jid{example.net} is using \ind{ODBC}ODBC to perform authentication
|
|
while domain \jid{example.com} is using the LDAP servers running on the domains
|
|
\jid{localhost} and \jid{otherhost}:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host_config, "example.net", [{auth_method, odbc},
|
|
{odbc_server, "DSN=ejabberd;UID=ejabberd;PWD=ejabberd"}]}.
|
|
|
|
{host_config, "example.com", [{auth_method, ldap},
|
|
{ldap_servers, ["localhost", "otherhost"]},
|
|
{ldap_uids, [{"uid"}]},
|
|
{ldap_rootdn, "dc=localdomain"},
|
|
{ldap_rootdn, "dc=example,dc=com"},
|
|
{ldap_password, ""}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{\aname{listened}{Listened Sockets}}
|
|
\label{sec:listened}
|
|
\ind{options!listen}
|
|
|
|
The option \option{listen} defines for which addresses and ports \ejabberd{}
|
|
will listen and what services will be run on them. Each element of the list is a
|
|
tuple with the following elements:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Port number.
|
|
\item Module that serves this port.
|
|
\item Options to this module.
|
|

specify additional options including \poption{\{password, Secret\}}.
|
|
\titem{http\_poll} \ind{options!http\_poll}\ind{protocols!JEP-0025: HTTP Polling}\ind{JWChat}\ind{web-based Jabber client}
|
|
This option enables HTTP Polling (\jepref{0025}) support. HTTP Polling
|
|
enables access via HTTP requests to \ejabberd{} from behind firewalls which
|
|
do not allow outgoing sockets on port 5222.
|
|
|
|
If HTTP Polling is enabled, it will be available at
|
|
\verb|http://server:port/http-poll/|. Be aware that support for HTTP Polling
|
|
is also needed in the \Jabber{} client. Remark also that HTTP Polling can be
|
|
interesting to host a web-based \Jabber{} client such as
|
|
\footahref{http://jwchat.sourceforge.net/}{JWChat} (there is a tutorial to
|
|
\footahref{http://ejabberd.jabber.ru/jwchat}{install JWChat} with
|
|
instructions for \ejabberd{}).
|
|
\titem{inet6} \ind{options!inet6}\ind{IPv6}Set up the socket for IPv6.
|
|
\titem{\{ip, IPAddress\}} \ind{options!ip}This option specifies which network
|
|
interface to listen for. For example \verb|{ip, {192, 168, 1, 1}}|.
|
|
\titem{\{max\_stanza\_size, Size\}} \ind{options!max\_stanza\_size}This
|
|
option specifies an approximate maximum size in bytes of XML stanzas.
|
|
Approximate, because it is calculated with the precision of one block of
|
|
readed data. For example \verb|{max_stanza_size, 65536}|. The default
|
|
value is \term{infinity}.
|
|
\titem{\{shaper, <access rule>\}} \ind{options!shaper}This option defines a
|
|
shaper for the port (see section~\ref{sec:shapers}). The default value
|
|
is \term{none}.
|
|
\titem{ssl} \ind{options!ssl}\ind{SSL}This option specifies that traffic on
|
|
the port will be encrypted using SSL. You should also set the
|
|
\option{certfile} option. It is recommended to use the \term{tls} option
|
|
instead.
|
|
\titem{starttls} \ind{options!starttls}\ind{STARTTLS}This option
|
|
specifies that STARTTLS encryption is available on connections to the port.
|
|
You should also set the \option{certfile} option.
|
|
\titem{starttls\_required} \ind{options!starttls\_required}This option
|
|
specifies that STARTTLS encryption is required on connections to the port.
|
|
No unencrypted connections will be allowed. You should also set the
|
|
\option{certfile} option.
|
|
\titem{tls} \ind{options!tls}\ind{TLS}This option specifies that traffic on
|
|
the port will be encrypted using SSL immediately after connecting. You
|
|
should also set the \option{certfile} option.
|
|
\titem{zlib} \ind{options!zlib}\ind{protocols!JEP-0138: Stream Compression}\ind{Zlib}This
|
|
option specifies that Zlib stream compression (as defined in \jepref{0138})
|
|
is available on connections to the port. Client connections cannot use
|
|
stream compression and stream encryption simultaneously. Hence, if you
|
|
specify both \option{tls} (or \option{ssl}) and \option{zlib}, the latter
|
|
option will not affect connections (there will be no stream compression).
|
|
\titem{web\_admin} \ind{options!web\_admin}\ind{web interface}This option
|
|
enables the web interface for \ejabberd{} administration which is available
|
|
at \verb|http://server:port/admin/|. Login and password are the username and
|
|
password of one of the registered users who are granted access by the
|
|
`configure' access rule.
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
In addition, the following options are available for s2s connections:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\titem{\{s2s\_use\_starttls, true|false\}}
|
|
\ind{options!s2s\_use\_starttls}\ind{STARTTLS}This option defines whether to
|
|
use STARTTLS for s2s connections.
|
|
\titem{\{s2s\_certfile, Path\}} \ind{options!s2s\_certificate}Path to a
|
|
file containing a SSL certificate.
|
|
\titem{\{domain\_certfile, Domain, Path\}} \ind{options!domain\_certfile}Path
|
|
to the file containing the SSL certificate for the specified domain.
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
For instance, the following configuration defines that:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item c2s connections are listened for on port 5222 and 5223 (SSL) and denied
|
|
for the user called `\term{bad}'.
|
|
\item s2s connections are listened for on port 5269 with STARTTLS for secured
|
|
traffic enabled.
|
|
\item Port 5280 is serving the web interface and the HTTP Polling service. Note
|
|
that it is also possible to serve them on different ports. The second
|
|
example in section~\ref{sec:webinterface} shows how exactly this can be done.
|

\subsection{\aname{auth}{Authentication}}
|
|
\label{sec:auth}
|
|
\ind{authentication}\ind{options!auth\_method}
|
|
|
|
The option \option{auth\_method} defines the authentication method that is used
|
|
for user authentication:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{auth_method, [<method>]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
The following authentication methods are supported by \ejabberd{}:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item internal (default) --- See section~\ref{sec:internalauth}.
|
|
\item external --- There are \footahref{http://ejabberd.jabber.ru/extauth}{some
|
|
example authentication scripts}.
|
|
\item ldap --- See section~\ref{sec:ldap}.
|
|
\item odbc --- See section~\ref{sec:mysql}, \ref{sec:pgsql},
|
|
\ref{sec:mssql} and \ref{sec:odbc}.
|
|
\item anonymous --- See section~\ref{sec:saslanonymous}.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\aname{internalauth}{Internal}}
|
|
\label{sec:internalauth}
|
|
\ind{internal authentication}\ind{Mnesia}
|
|
|
|
\ejabberd{} uses its internal Mnesia database as the default authentication method.
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item \term{auth\_method}: The value \term{internal} will enable the internal
|
|
authentication method.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item To use internal authentication on \jid{example.org} and LDAP
|
|
authentication on \jid{example.net}:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host_config, "example.org", [{auth_method, [internal]}]}.
|
|
{host_config, "example.net", [{auth_method, [ldap]}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item To use internal authentication on all virtual hosts:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{auth_method, internal}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\aname{saslanonymous}{SASL Anonymous and Anonymous Login}}
|
|
\label{sec:saslanonymous}
|
|
\ind{sasl anonymous}\ind{anonymous login}
|
|
|
|
%TODO: introduction; tell what people can do with this
|
|
The anonymous authentication method can be configured with the following
|
|
options. Remember that you can use the \term{host\_config} option to set virtual
|
|
host specific options (see section~\ref{sec:virtualhost}). Note that there also
|
|
is a detailed tutorial regarding \footahref{http://support.process-one.net/doc/display/MESSENGER/Anonymous+users+support}{SASL
|
|
Anonymous and anonymous login configuration}.
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item \term{auth\_method}: The value \term{anonymous} will enable the anonymous
|
|
authentication method.
|
|
\item \term{allow\_multiple\_connections}: This value for this option can be
|
|
either \term{true} or \term{false} and is only used when the anonymous mode is
|
|
enabled. Setting it to \term{true} means that the same username can be taken
|
|
multiple times in anonymous login mode if different resource are used to
|
|
connect. This option is only useful in very special occasions. The default
|
|
value is \term{false}.
|
|
\item \term{anonymous\_protocol}: This option can take three values:
|
|
\term{sasl\_anon}, \term{login\_anon} or \term{both}. \term{sasl\_anon} means
|
|
that the SASL Anonymous method will be used. \term{login\_anon} means that the
|
|
anonymous login method will be used. \term{both} means that SASL Anonymous and
|
|
login anonymous are both enabled.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
Those options are defined for each virtual host with the \term{host\_config}
|
|
parameter (see section~\ref{sec:virtualhost}).
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item To enable anonymous login on all virtual hosts:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{auth_method, [anonymous]}.
|
|
{anonymous_protocol, login_anon}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item Similar as previous example, but limited to \jid{public.example.org}:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host_config, "public.example.org", [{auth_method, [anonymous]},
|
|
{anonymous_protocol, login_anon}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item To enable anonymous login and internal authentication on a virtual host:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host_config, "public.example.org", [{auth_method, [internal,anonymous]},
|
|
{anonymous_protocol, login_anon}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item To enable SASL Anonymous on a virtual host:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host_config, "public.example.org", [{auth_method, [anonymous]},
|
|
{anonymous_protocol, sasl_anon}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item To enable SASL Anonymous and anonymous login on a virtual host:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host_config, "public.example.org", [{auth_method, [anonymous]},
|
|
{anonymous_protocol, both}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item To enable SASL Anonymous, anonymous login, and internal authentication on

\subsection{\aname{accessrules}{Access Rules}}
|
|
\label{sec:accessrules}
|
|
\ind{options!acl}\ind{access rules}\ind{ACL}\ind{Access Control List}
|
|
|
|
Access control in \ejabberd{} is performed via Access Control Lists (ACLs). The
|
|
declarations of ACLs in the configuration file have the following syntax:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, <aclname>, {<acltype>, ...}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
\term{<acltype>} can be one of the following:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\titem{all} Matches all JIDs. Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, all, all}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\titem{\{user, <username>\}} Matches the user with the name
|
|
\term{<username>} at the first virtual host. Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, admin, {user, "yozhik"}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\titem{\{user, <username>, <server>\}} Matches the user with the JID
|
|
\term{<username>@<server>} and any resource. Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, admin, {user, "yozhik", "example.org"}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\titem{\{server, <server>\}} Matches any JID from server
|
|
\term{<server>}. Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, exampleorg, {server, "example.org"}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\titem{\{user\_regexp, <regexp>\}} Matches any local user with a name that
|
|
matches \term{<regexp>} at the first virtual host. Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, tests, {user_regexp, "^test[0-9]*$"}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
%$
|
|
\titem{\{user\_regexp, <regexp>, <server>\}} Matches any user with a name
|
|
that matches \term{<regexp>} at server \term{<server>}. Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, tests, {user_regexp, "^test", "example.org"}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\titem{\{server\_regexp, <regexp>\}} Matches any JID from the server that
|
|
matches \term{<regexp>}. Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, icq, {server_regexp, "^icq\\."}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\titem{\{node\_regexp, <user\_regexp>, <server\_regexp>\}} Matches any user
|
|
with a name that matches \term{<user\_regexp>} at any server that matches
|
|
\term{<server\_regexp>}. Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, yohzik, {node_regexp, "^yohzik$", "^example.(com|org)$"}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\titem{\{user\_glob, <glob>\}}
|
|
\titem{\{user\_glob, <glob>, <server>\}}
|
|
\titem{\{server\_glob, <glob>\}}
|
|
\titem{\{node\_glob, <user\_glob>, <server\_glob>\}} This is the same as
|
|
above. However, it uses shell glob patterns instead of regexp. These patterns
|
|
can have the following special characters:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\titem{*} matches any string including the null string.
|
|
\titem{?} matches any single character.
|
|
\titem{[...]} matches any of the enclosed characters. Character
|
|
ranges are specified by a pair of characters separated by a \term{`-'}.
|
|
If the first character after \term{`['} is a \term{`!'}, any
|
|
character not enclosed is matched.
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
The following ACLs are pre-defined:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\titem{all} Matches any JID.
|
|
\titem{none} Matches no JID.
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
An entry allowing or denying access to different services looks similar to
|
|
this:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{access, <accessname>, [{allow, <aclname>},
|
|
{deny, <aclname>},
|
|
...
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
When a JID is checked to have access to \term{<accessname>}, the server
|
|
sequentially checks if that JID mathes any of the ACLs that are named in the
|
|
second elements of the tuples in the list. If it matches, the first element of
|
|
the first matched tuple is returned, otherwise the value `\term{deny}' is
|
|
returned.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{access, configure, [{allow, admin}]}.
|
|
{access, something, [{deny, badmans},
|
|
{allow, all}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
The following access rules are pre-defined:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\titem{all} Always returns the value `\term{allow}'.
|
|
\titem{none} Always returns the value `\term{deny}'.
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{\aname{shapers}{Shapers}}
|
|
\label{sec:shapers}
|
|
\ind{options!shaper}\ind{options!maxrate}\ind{shapers}\ind{maxrate}\ind{traffic speed}
|
|
|
|
Shapers enable you to limit connection traffic. The syntax of
|
|
shapers is like this:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{shaper, <shapername>, <kind>}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
Currently only one kind of shaper called \term{maxrate} is available. It has the
|
|
following syntax:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{maxrate, <rate>}
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
where \term{<rate>} stands for the maximum allowed incomig rate in bytes per
|
|
second.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item To define a shaper named `\term{normal}' with traffic speed limited to
|
|
1,000\,bytes/second:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{shaper, normal, {maxrate, 1000}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item To define a shaper named `\term{fast}' with traffic speed limited to
|
|
50,000\,bytes/second:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{shaper, fast, {maxrate, 50000}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{Limiting Opened Sessions}
|
|
\label{sec:configmaxsessions}
|
|
\ind{options!max\_user\_sessions}
|
|
|
|
This option specifies the maximum number of sessions (authenticated
|
|
connections) per user. If a user tries to open more sessions by using different
|
|
resources, the first opened session will be disconnected. The error
|
|
\term{session replaced} will be sent to the disconnected session. The value
|
|
for this option can be either a number, or \term{infinity}. The default
|
|
value is \term{10}.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item To limit the number of sessions per user to 10 on all virtual
|
|
hosts:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{max_user_sessions, 10}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item This option can be defined per virtual host (see
|
|
section~\ref{sec:virtualhost}). In next example the number of
|
|
sessions per user on the first host is six, while there is no limit on the
|
|
second host:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}

|
|
|
|
The option \option{language} defines the default language of server strings that
|
|
can be seen by \Jabber{} clients. If a \Jabber{} client do not support
|
|
\option{xml:lang}, the specified language is used. The default value is
|
|
\term{en}. In order to take effect there must be a translation file
|
|
\term{<language>.msg} in \ejabberd{}'s \term{msgs} directory.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item To set Russian as default language:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{language, "ru"}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item To set Spanish as default language:

|
|
%TODO: this whole section is not yet 100% optimized
|
|
|
|
\ejabberd{} uses its internal Mnesia database by default. However, it is
|
|
possible to use a relational database or an LDAP server to store persistant,
|
|
long-living data. \ejabberd{} is very flexible: you can configure different
|
|
authentication methods for different virtual hosts, you can configure different
|
|
authentication mechanisms for the same virtual host (fallback), you can set
|
|
different storage systems for modules, and so forth.
|
|
|
|
The following databases are supported by \ejabberd{}:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item \footahref{http://www.microsoft.com/sql/}{Microsoft SQL Server}
|
|
\item \footahref{http://www.erlang.org/doc/doc-5.5.1/lib/mnesia-4.3.2/doc/}{Mnesia}
|
|
\item \footahref{http://mysql.com/}{MySQL}
|
|
\item \footahref{http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open\_Database\_Connectivity}{Any ODBC compatible database}
|
|
\item \footahref{http://www.postgresql.org/}{PostgreSQL}
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
The following LDAP servers are tested with \ejabberd{}:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item \footahref{http://www.microsoft.com/activedirectory/}{Active Directory}
|
|
(see section~\ref{sec:ad})
|
|
\item \footahref{http://www.openldap.org/}{OpenLDAP}
|
|
\item Normally any LDAP compatible server should work; inform us about your
|
|
success with a not-listed server so that we can list it here.

\ind{MySQL}\ind{MySQL!schema}
|
|
|
|
Although this section will describe \ejabberd{}'s configuration when you want to
|
|
use the native MySQL driver, it does not describe MySQL's installation and
|
|
database creation. Check the MySQL documentation and the tutorial \footahref{http://support.process-one.net/doc/display/MESSENGER/Using+ejabberd+with+MySQL+native+driver}{Using ejabberd with MySQL native driver} for information regarding these topics.
|
|
Note that the tutorial contains information about \ejabberd{}'s configuration
|
|
which is duplicate to this section.
|
|
|
|
Moreover, the file mysql.sql in the directory src/odbc might be interesting for
|
|
you. This file contains the ejabberd schema for MySQL. At the end of the file
|
|
you can find information to update your database schema.

|
|
|
|
You can skip this step if you installed \ejabberd{} using a binary installer or
|
|
if the binary packages of \ejabberd{} you are using include support for MySQL.
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item First, install the \footahref{http://support.process-one.net/doc/display/CONTRIBS/Yxa}{Erlang
|
|
MySQL library}. Make sure the compiled files are in your Erlang path; you can
|
|
put them for example in the same directory as your ejabberd .beam files.
|
|
\item Then, configure and install \ejabberd{} with ODBC support enabled (this is
|
|
also needed for native MySQL support!). This can be done, by using next
|
|
commands:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
./configure --enable-odbc && make install
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{enumerate}

|
\subsubsection{\aname{mysqlauth}{Authentication}}
|
|
\label{sec:mysqlauth}
|
|
\ind{MySQL!authentication}
|
|
|
|
The option value name may be misleading, as the \term{auth\_method} name is used
|
|
for access to a relational database through ODBC, as well as through the native
|
|
MySQL interface. Anyway, the first configuration step is to define the odbc
|
|
\term{auth\_method}. For example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{host_config, "public.example.org", [{auth_method, [odbc]}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
The actual database access is defined in the option \term{odbc\_server}. Its
|
|
value is used to define if we want to use ODBC, or one of the two native
|
|
interface available, PostgreSQL or MySQL.
|
|
|
|
To use the native MySQL interface, you can pass a tuple of the following form as
|
|
parameter:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{mysql, "Server", "Database", "Username", "Password"}
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
\term{mysql} is a keyword that should be kept as is. For example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{odbc_server, {mysql, "localhost", "test", "root", "password"}}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}

|
|
|
\subsubsection{\aname{mysqlstorage}{Storage}}

|
MySQL also can be used to store information into from several \ejabberd{}
|
|
modules. See section~\ref{sec:modoverview} to see which modules have a version
|
|
with the `\_odbc'. This suffix indicates that the module can be used with
|
|
relational databases like MySQL. To enable storage to your database, just make
|
|
sure that your database is running well (see previous sections), and replace the
|
|
suffix-less or ldap module variant with the odbc module variant. Keep in mind
|
|
that you cannot have several variants of the same module loaded!

if the binary packages of \ejabberd{} you are using include support for ODBC.
|
|
|
|
If you want to use Microsoft SQL Server with ODBC, you need to configure,
|
|
compile and install \ejabberd{} with support for ODBC and Microsoft SQL Server
|
|
enabled. This can be done, by using next commands:

users with their passwords in \term{"ou=Users,dc=example,dc=org"} directory.
|
|
Also we have addressbook, which contains users emails and their additional

defined in our LDAP schema: \term{"mail"} --- email address, \term{"givenName"}
|
|
--- first name, \term{"sn"} --- second name, \term{"birthDay"} --- birthday.

\section{\aname{modules}{Modules Configuration}}
|
|
\label{sec:modules}
|
|
\ind{modules}
|
|
|
|
The option \term{modules} defines the list of modules that will be loaded after
|
|
\ejabberd{}'s startup. Each entry in the list is a tuple in which the first
|
|
element is the name of a module and the second is a list of options for that
|
|
module.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item In this example only the module \modecho{} is loaded and no module
|
|
options are specified between the square brackets:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{modules,
|
|
[{mod_echo, []}
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item In the second example the modules \modecho{}, \modtime{}, and
|
|
\modversion{} are loaded without options. Remark that, besides the last entry,
|
|
all entries end with a comma:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{modules,
|
|
[{mod_echo, []},
|
|
{mod_time, []},
|
|
{mod_version, []}
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|

\subsection{\aname{modoverview}{Overview}}
|
|
\label{sec:modoverview}
|
|
\ind{modules!overview}\ind{XMPP compliancy}
|
|
|
|
The following table lists all modules available in the official \ejabberd{}
|
|
distribution. You can find more
|
|
\footahref{http://ejabberd.jabber.ru/contributions}{contributed modules} on the
|
|
\ejabberd{} website. Please remember that these contributions might not work or
|
|
that they can contain severe bugs and security leaks. Therefore, use them at
|
|
your own risk!
|
|
|
|
You can see which database backend each module needs by looking at the suffix:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item `\_ldap', this means that the module needs an LDAP server as backend.
|
|
\item `\_odbc', this means that the module needs a supported database
|
|
(see~\ref{sec:database}) as backend.
|
|
\item No suffix, this means that the modules uses Erlang's built-in database
|
|
Mnesia as backend.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
If you want to
|
|
It is possible to use a relational database to store pieces of
|
|
information. You can do this by changing the module name to a name with an
|
|
\term{\_odbc} suffix in \ejabberd{} config file. You can use a relational
|
|
database for the following data:
|
|
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Last connection date and time: Use \term{mod\_last\_odbc} instead of
|
|
\term{mod\_last}.
|
|
\item Offline messages: Use \term{mod\_offline\_odbc} instead of
|
|
\term{mod\_offline}.
|
|
\item Rosters: Use \term{mod\_roster\_odbc} instead of \term{mod\_roster}.
|
|
\item Users' VCARD: Use \term{mod\_vcard\_odbc} instead of \term{mod\_vcard}.
|
|
\end{itemize}

\subsection{\aname{modcommonoptions}{Common Options}}
|
|
\label{sec:modcommonoptions}
|
|
|
|
The following options are used by many modules. Therefore, they are described in
|
|
this separate section.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\option{\aname{modiqdiscoption}{iqdisc}}}
|
|
\label{sec:modiqdiscoption}
|
|
\ind{options!iqdisc}
|
|
|
|
Many modules define handlers for processing IQ queries of different namespaces
|
|
to this server or to a user (e.\,g.\ to \jid{example.org} or to
|
|
\jid{user@example.org}). This option defines processing discipline for
|
|
these queries. Possible values are:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\titem{no\_queue} All queries of a namespace with this processing discipline are
|
|
processed immediately. This also means that no other packets can be processed
|
|
until this one has been completely processed. Hence this discipline is not
|
|
recommended if the processing of a query can take a relatively long time.
|
|
\titem{one\_queue} In this case a separate queue is created for the processing
|
|
of IQ queries of a namespace with this discipline. In addition, the processing
|
|
of this queue is done in parallel with that of other packets. This discipline
|
|
is most recommended.
|
|
\titem{parallel} For every packet with this discipline a separate Erlang process
|
|
is spawned. Consequently, all these packets are processed in parallel.
|
|
Although spawning of Erlang process has a relatively low cost, this can break
|
|
the server's normal work, because the Erlang emulator has a limit on the
|
|
number of processes (32000 by default).
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{modules,
|
|
[
|
|
...
|
|
{mod_time, [{iqdisc, no_queue}]},
|
|
...
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\option{\aname{modhostsoption}{hosts}}}
|
|
\label{sec:modhostsoption}
|
|
\ind{options!hosts}
|
|
|
|
A module acting as a service can have one or more hostnames. These hostnames
|
|
can be defined with the \option{hosts} option.
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Serving the \ind{modules!\modecho{}}echo module on one domain:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{modules,
|
|
[
|
|
...
|
|
{mod_echo, [{hosts, ["echo.example.org"]}]},
|
|
...
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item Backwards compatibility with older \ejabberd{} versions can be retained
|
|
with:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{modules,
|
|
[
|
|
...
|
|
{mod_echo, [{host, "echo.example.org"}]},
|
|
...
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
\item Serving the echo module on two domains:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{modules,
|
|
[
|
|
...
|
|
{mod_echo, [{hosts, ["echo.example.net", "echo.example.com"]}]},
|
|
...
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\subsection{\aname{modannounce}{\modannounce{}}}
|
|
\label{sec:modannounce}
|
|
\ind{modules!\modannounce{}}\ind{MOTD}\ind{message of the day}\ind{announcements}
|
|
|
|
This module enables configured users to broadcast announcements and to set
|
|
the message of the day (MOTD). Configured users can do these actions with their
|
|
\Jabber{} client by sending messages to specific JIDs. These JIDs are listed in
|
|
next paragraph. The first JID in each entry will apply only to the virtual host
|
|
\jid{example.org}, while the JID between brackets will apply to all virtual
|
|
hosts:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\titem{example.org/announce/all (example.org/announce/all-hosts/all)} The
|
|
message is sent to all registered users. If the user is online and connected
|
|
to several resources, only the resource with the highest priority will receive
|
|
the message. If the registered user is not connected, the message will be
|
|
stored offline in assumption that \ind{modules!\modoffline{}}offline storage
|
|
(see section~\ref{sec:modoffline}) is enabled.
|
|
\titem{example.org/announce/online (example.org/announce/all-hosts/online)}The
|
|
message is sent to all connected users. If the user is online and connected
|
|
to several resources, all resources will receive the message.
|
|
\titem{example.org/announce/motd (example.org/announce/all-hosts/motd)}The
|
|
message is set as the message of the day (MOTD) and is sent to users when they
|
|
login. In addition the message is sent to all connected users (similar to
|
|
\term{announce/online}).
|
|
\titem{example.org/announce/motd/update (example.org/announce/all-hosts/motd/update)}
|
|
The message is set as message of the day (MOTD) and is sent to users when they
|
|
login. The message is \emph{not sent} to any currently connected user.
|
|
\titem{example.org/announce/motd/delete (example.org/announce/all-hosts/motd/delete)}
|
|
Any message sent to this JID removes the existing message of the day (MOTD).
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\titem{access} \ind{options!access}This option specifies who is allowed to
|
|
send announcements and to set the message of the day (by default, nobody is
|
|
able to send such messages).
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Only administrators can send announcements:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{access, announce, [{allow, admins}]}.
|
|
|
|
{modules,
|
|
[
|

...
|
|
{mod_announce, [{access, announce}]},
|
|
...
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item Administrators as well as the direction can send announcements:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, direction, {user, "big_boss", "example.org"}}.
|
|
{acl, direction, {user, "assistant", "example.org"}}.

\ind{modules!\moddisco{}}\ind{protocols!JEP-0030: Service Discovery}\ind{protocols!JEP-0011: Jabber Browsing}\ind{protocols!JEP-0094: Agent Information}
|
|
|
|
This module adds support for Service Discovery (\jepref{0030}). With
|
|
this module enabled, services on your server can be discovered by
|
|
\Jabber{} clients. Note that \ejabberd{} has no modules with support
|
|
for the superseded Jabber Browsing (\jepref{0011}) and Agent Information
|
|
(\jepref{0094}). Accordingly, \Jabber{} clients need to have support for
|
|
the newer Service Discovery protocol if you want them be able to discover
|
|
the services you offer.
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
\begin{description}

\subsection{\aname{modirc}{\modirc{}}}
|
|
\label{sec:modirc}
|
|
\ind{modules!\modirc{}}\ind{IRC}
|
|
|
|
This module is an IRC transport that can be used to join channels on IRC
|
|
servers.
|
|
|
|
End user information:
|
|
\ind{protocols!groupchat 1.0}\ind{protocols!JEP-0045: Multi-User Chat}
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item A \Jabber{} client with `groupchat 1.0' support or Multi-User
|
|
Chat support (\jepref{0045}) is necessary to join IRC channels.
|
|
\item An IRC channel can be joined in nearly the same way as joining a
|
|
\Jabber{} Multi-User Chat room. The difference is that the room name will
|
|
be `channel\%\jid{irc.example.org}' in case \jid{irc.example.org} is
|
|
the IRC server hosting `channel'. And of course the host should point
|
|
to the IRC transport instead of the Multi-User Chat service.
|
|
\item You can register your nickame by sending `IDENTIFY password' to \\
|
|
\jid{nickserver!irc.example.org@irc.jabberserver.org}.
|
|
\item Entering your password is possible by sending `LOGIN nick password' \\
|
|
to \jid{nickserver!irc.example.org@irc.jabberserver.org}.
|
|
\item When using a popular \Jabber{} server, it can occur that no
|
|
connection can be achieved with some IRC servers because they limit the
|
|
number of conections from one IP.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\hostitem{irc}
|
|
\titem{access} \ind{options!access}This option can be used to specify who
|
|
may use the IRC transport (default value: \term{all}).
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item In the first example, the IRC transport is available on (all) your
|
|
virtual host(s) with the prefix `\jid{irc.}'. Furthermore, anyone is
|
|
able to use the transport.
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{modules,
|
|
[
|
|
...
|
|
{mod_irc, [{access, all}]},
|
|
...
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
%TODO: bug in current svn!: irc-transport.example.com will *not* show up in the
|
|
% service discovery items; instead you will see irc.example.com
|
|
\item In next example the IRC transport is available on the two virtual hosts
|
|
\jid{example.net} and \jid{example.com} with different prefixes on each host.
|
|
Moreover, the transport is only accessible by paying customers registered on
|
|
our domains and on other servers.

|
|
|
|
This module adds support for Last Activity (\jepref{0012}). It can be used to
|
|
discover when a disconnected user last accessed the server, to know when a

\ind{modules!\modmuc{}}\ind{protocols!JEP-0045: Multi-User Chat}\ind{conferencing}
|
|
|
|
With this module enabled, your server will support Multi-User Chat
|
|
(\jepref{0045}). End users will be able to join text conferences. Notice
|
|
that this module is not (yet) clusterable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some of the features of Multi-User Chat:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Sending private messages to room participants.
|
|
\item Inviting users.
|
|
\item Setting a conference topic.
|
|
\item Creating password protected rooms.
|
|
\item Kicking and banning participants.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\hostitem{conference}
|
|
\titem{access} \ind{options!access}You can specify who is allowed to use
|
|
the Multi-User Chat service (by default, everyone is allowed to use it).
|
|
\titem{access\_create} \ind{options!access\_create}To configure who is
|
|
allowed to create new rooms at the Multi-User Chat service, this option
|
|
can be used (by default, everybody is allowed to create rooms).
|
|
\titem{access\_admin} \ind{options!access\_admin}This option specifies
|
|
who is allowed to administrate the Multi-User Chat service (the default
|
|
value is \term{none}, which means that only the room creator can
|
|
administer his room). By sending a message to the service JID,
|
|
administrators can send service messages that will be displayed in every
|
|
active room.
|
|
\titem{history\_size} \ind{options!history\_size}A small history of the
|
|
current discussion is sent to users when they enter the room. With this option
|
|
you can define the number of history messages to keep and send to users
|
|
joining the room. The value is an integer. Setting the value to \term{0}
|
|
disables the history feature and, as a result, nothing is kept in memory. The
|
|
default value is \term{20}. This value is global and thus affects all rooms on
|
|
the server.
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item In the first example everyone is allowed to use the Multi-User Chat
|
|
service. Everyone will also be able to create new rooms but only the user
|
|
\jid{admin@example.org} is allowed to administrate any room. In this
|
|
example he is also a global administrator. When \jid{admin@example.org}
|
|
sends a message such as `Tomorrow, the \Jabber{} server will be moved
|
|
to new hardware. This will involve service breakdowns around 23:00 UMT.
|
|
We apologise for this inconvenience.' to \jid{conference.example.org},
|
|
it will be displayed in all active rooms. In this example the history
|
|
feature is disabled.
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, admins, {user, "admin", "example.org"}}.
|
|
...
|
|
{access, muc_admins, [{allow, admins}]}.

|
|
{history_size, 0}]},
|
|
...
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item In the second example the Multi-User Chat service is only accessible by
|
|
paying customers registered on our domains and on other servers. Of course
|
|
the administrator is also allowed to access rooms. In addition, he is the
|
|
only authority able to create and administer rooms. When
|
|
\jid{admin@example.org} sends a message such as `Tomorrow, the \Jabber{}
|
|
server will be moved to new hardware. This will involve service breakdowns
|
|
around 23:00 UMT. We apologise for this inconvenience.' to
|
|
\jid{conference.example.org}, it will be displayed in all active rooms. No
|
|
\term{history\_size} option is used, this means that the feature is enabled
|
|
and the default value of 20 history messages will be send to the users.
|
|
\begin{verbatim}

\label{sec:modmuclog}
|
|
\ind{modules!\modmuclog{}}
|
|
|
|
This module enables optional logging of Multi-User Chat (MUC) conversations to
|
|
HTML. Once you enable this module, users can join a chatroom using a MUC capable
|
|
Jabber client, and if they have enough privileges, they can request the
|
|
configuration form in which they can set the option to enable chatroom logging.
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Chatroom details are added on top of each page: room title, JID,
|
|
author, subject and configuration.
|
|
\item \ind{protocols!RFC 4622: Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRIs) and Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) for the Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP)}
|
|
Room title and JID are links to join the chatroom (using
|
|
\footahref{http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4622.txt}{XMPP URIs}).
|
|
\item Subject and chatroom configuration changes are tracked and displayed.
|
|
\item Joins, leaves, nick changes, kicks, bans and `/me' are tracked and
|
|
displayed, including the reason if available.
|
|
\item Generated HTML files are XHTML 1.0 Transitional and CSS compliant.
|
|
\item Timestamps are self-referencing links.
|
|
\item Links on top for quicker navigation: Previous day, Next day, Up.
|
|
\item CSS is used for style definition, and a custom CSS file can be used.
|
|
\item URLs on messages and subjects are converted to hyperlinks.
|
|
\item Timezone used on timestamps is shown on the log files.
|
|
\item A custom link can be added on top of each page.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
Options:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\titem{access\_log}\ind{options!access\_log}
|
|
This option restricts which users are allowed to enable or disable chatroom
|
|
logging. The default value is \term{muc\_admin}. Note for this default setting
|
|
you need to have an access rule for \term{muc\_admin} in order to take effect.
|
|
\titem{cssfile}\ind{options!cssfile}
|
|
With this option you can set whether the HTML files should have a custom CSS
|
|
file or if they need to use the embedded CSS file. Allowed values are
|
|
\term{false} and an URL to a CSS file. With the first value, HTML files will
|
|
include the embedded CSS code. With the latter, you can specify the URL of the
|
|
custom CSS file (for example: `http://example.com/my.css'). The default value
|
|
is \term{false}.
|
|
\titem{dirtype}\ind{options!dirtype}
|
|
The type of the created directories can be specified with this option. Allowed
|
|
values are \term{subdirs} and \term{plain}. With the first value,
|
|
subdirectories are created for each year and month. With the latter, the
|
|
names of the log files contain the full date, and there are no subdirectories.
|
|
The default value is \term{subdirs}.
|
|
\titem{outdir}\ind{options!outdir}
|
|
This option sets the full path to the directory in which the HTML files should
|
|
be stored. Make sure the \ejabberd{} daemon user has write access on that
|
|
directory. The default value is \term{"www/muc"}.
|
|
\titem{timezone}\ind{options!timezone}
|
|
The time zone for the logs is configurable with this option. Allowed values
|
|
are \term{local} and \term{universal}. With the first value, the local time,
|
|
as reported to Erlang by the operating system, will be used. With the latter,
|
|
GMT/UTC time will be used. The default value is \term{local}.
|
|
\titem{top\_link}\ind{options!top\_link}
|
|
With this option you can customize the link on the top right corner of each
|
|
log file. The syntax of this option is \term{\{"URL", "Text"\}}. The default
|
|
value is \term{\{"/", "Home"\}}.
|
|

|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item In the first example any chatroom owner can enable logging, and a
|
|
custom CSS file will be used (http://example.com/my.css). Further, the names
|
|
of the log files will contain the full date, and there will be no
|
|
subdirectories. The log files will be stored in /var/www/muclogs, and the
|
|
time zone will be GMT/UTC. Finally, the top link will be
|
|
\verb|<a href="http://www.jabber.ru">Jabber.ru</a>|.

\ind{modules!\modsharedroster{}}\ind{shared roster groups}
|
|
|
|
This module enables you to create shared roster groups. This means that you can
|
|
create groups of people that can see members from (other) groups in their
|
|
rosters. The big advantages of this feature are that end users do not need to
|
|
manually add all users to their rosters, and that they cannot permanently delete
|
|
users from the shared roster groups.
|
|
|
|
Shared roster groups can be edited \emph{only} via the web interface. Each group
|
|
has a unique identification and the following parameters:
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\item[Name] The name of the group, which will be displayed in the roster.
|
|
\item[Description] The description of the group. This parameter does not affect
|
|
anything.
|
|
\item[Members] A list of full JIDs of group members, entered one per line in
|
|
the web interface.
|
|
\item[Displayed groups] A list of groups that will be in the rosters of this
|
|
group's members.
|
|
\end{description}
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item Take the case of a computer club that wants all its members seeing each
|
|
other in their rosters. To achieve this, they need to create a shared roster
|
|
group similar to next table:
|
|
\begin{table}[H]
|
|
\centering
|
|
\begin{tabular}{|l|l|}
|
|
\hline Identification& Group `\texttt{club\_members}'\\
|
|
\hline Name& Club Members\\
|
|
\hline Description& Members from the computer club\\
|
|
\hline Members&
|
|
{\begin{tabular}{l}
|
|
\jid{member1@example.org}\\
|

|
|
\end{tabular}
|
|
}\\
|
|
\hline Displayed groups& \texttt{club\_members}\\
|
|
\hline
|
|
\end{tabular}
|
|
\end{table}
|
|
\item In another case we have a company which has three divisions: Management,
|
|
Marketing and Sales. All group members should see all other members in their
|
|
rosters. Additonally, all managers should have all marketing and sales people
|
|
in their roster. Simultaneously, all marketeers and the whole sales team
|
|
should see all managers. This scenario can be achieved by creating shared
|
|
roster groups as shown in the following table:
|
|
\begin{table}[H]

allows you to retrieve next statistics from your \ejabberd{} deployment:
|
|
\begin{itemize}

|
other users vCards, as defined in vcard-temp (\jepref{0054}). The module also

|
|
\titem{search}\ind{options!search}This option specifies whether the search

|
functionality is enabled (value: \term{true}) or disabled (value:
|
|
\term{false}). If disabled, the option \term{hosts} will be ignored and the
|
|
\Jabber{} User Directory service will not appear in the Service Discovery item
|
|
list. The default value is \term{true}.
|
|
\titem{matches}\ind{options!matches}With this option, the number of reported

search results can be limited. If the option's value is set to \term{infinity},

all search results are reported. The default value is \term{30}.
|
|
\titem{allow\_return\_all}\ind{options!allow\_return\_all}This option enables
|
|
you to specify if search operations with empty input fields should return all
|
|
users who added some information to their vCard. The default value is
|
|
\term{false}.
|
|
\titem{search\_all\_hosts}\ind{options!search\_all\_hosts}If this option is set

|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item In this first situation, search results are limited to twenty items,
|
|
every user who added information to their vCard will be listed when people
|
|
do an empty search, and only users from the current host will be returned:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}

|
|
{search_all_hosts, false}]},
|
|
...
|
|
]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item The second situation differs in a way that search results are not limited,
|
|
and that all virtual hosts will be searched instead of only the current one:

|
\begin{verbatim}

|
|
|
\ejabberd{} can map LDAP attributes to vCard fields. This behaviour is
|
|
implemented in the \modvcardldap{} module. This module does not depend on the
|
|
authentication method (see~\ref{sec:ldapauth}). The \modvcardldap{} module has
|
|
its own optional parameters. The first group of parameters has the same
|
|
meaning as the top-level LDAP parameters to set the authentication method:
|
|
\option{ldap\_servers}, \option{ldap\_port}, \option{ldap\_rootdn},
|
|
\option{ldap\_password}, \option{ldap\_base}, \option{ldap\_uids}, and
|
|
\option{ldap\_filter}. See section~\ref{sec:ldapauth} for detailed information
|
|
about these options. If one of these options is not set, \ejabberd{} will look
|
|
for the top-level option with the same name. The second group of parameters
|
|
consists of the following \modvcardldap{}-specific options:
|
|
|
|
\begin{description}
|
|
\hostitem{vjud}
|
|
\iqdiscitem{\ns{vcard-temp}}
|
|
\titem{search}\ind{options!search}This option specifies whether the search
|
|
functionality is enabled (value: \term{true}) or disabled (value:
|
|
\term{false}). If disabled, the option \term{hosts} will be ignored and the
|
|
\Jabber{} User Directory service will not appear in the Service Discovery item
|
|
list. The default value is \term{true}.
|
|
\titem{ldap\_vcard\_map}\ind{options!ldap\_vcard\_map}With this option you can
|
|
set the table that maps LDAP attributes to vCard fields. The format is:
|
|
\term{[{Name\_of\_vCard\_field, Pattern, List\_of\_LDAP\_attributes}, ...]}.\ind{protocols!RFC 2426: vCard MIME Directory Profile}
|
|
\term{Name\_of\_vcard\_field} is the type name of the vCard as defined in
|
|
\footahref{http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2426.txt}{RFC 2426}. \term{Pattern} is a
|
|
string which contains pattern variables \term{"\%u"}, \term{"\%d"} or
|
|
\term{"\%s"}. \term{List\_of\_LDAP\_attributes} is the list containing LDAP
|
|
attributes. The pattern variables \term{"\%s"} will be sequentially replaced
|
|
with the values of LDAP attributes from \term{List\_of\_LDAP\_attributes},
|
|
\term{"\%u"} will be replaced with the user part of a JID, and \term{"\%d"}

Let's say \term{ldap.example.org} is the name of our LDAP server. We have
|
|
users with their passwords in \term{"ou=Users,dc=example,dc=org"} directory.
|
|
Also we have addressbook, which contains users emails and their additional
|
|
infos in \term{"ou=AddressBook,dc=example,dc=org"} directory. Corresponding
|
|
authentication section should looks like this:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
%% authentication method
|
|
{auth_method, ldap}.
|
|
%% DNS name of our LDAP server
|

|
%% We want to authorize users from 'shadowAccount' object class only
|
|
{ldap_filter, "(objectClass=shadowAccount)"}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
Now we want to use users LDAP-info as their vCards. We have four attributes
|
|
defined in our LDAP schema: \term{"mail"} --- email address, \term{"givenName"}
|
|
--- first name, \term{"sn"} --- second name, \term{"birthDay"} --- birthday.

Also we want users to search each other. Let's see how we can set it up:

%% "ou=AddressBook,dc=example,dc=org" subtree.

%% uidattr_format: common format for our emails
|
|
{ldap_uids, [{"mail","%u@mail.example.org"}]},
|
|
%% We have to define empty filter here, because entries in addressbook does not
|
|
%% belong to shadowAccount object class
|
|
{ldap_filter, ""},
|

%% Now we want to define vCard pattern
|

\section{\aname{initialadmin}{Creating an Initial Administrator}}
|
|
\label{sec:initialadmin}
|
|
|
|
Before the web interface can be entered to perform administration tasks, an
|
|
account with administrator rights is needed on your \ejabberd{} deployment.
|
|
|
|
Instructions to create an initial administrator account:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Register an account on your \ejabberd{} deployment. An account can be
|
|
created in two ways:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Using the tool \term{ejabberdctl}\ind{ejabberdctl} (see
|
|
section~\ref{sec:ejabberdctl}):
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
% ejabberdctl node@host register admin example.org password
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item Using In-Band Registration (see section~\ref{sec:modregister}): you can
|
|
use a \Jabber{} client to register an account.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
\item Edit the configuration file to promote the account created in the previous
|
|
step to an account with administrator rights. Note that if you want to add
|
|
more administrators, a seperate acl entry is needed for each administrator.
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
{acl, admins, {user, "admin", "example.org"}}.
|
|
{access, configure, [{allow, admins}]}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item Restart \ejabberd{} to load the new configuration.
|
|
\item Open the web interface (\verb|http://server:port/admin/|) in your
|
|
favourite browser. Make sure to enter the \emph{full} JID as username (in this
|
|
example: \jid{admin@example.org}. The reason that you also need to enter the
|
|
suffix, is because \ejabberd{}'s virtual hosting support.
|
|
\end{enumerate}

\subsection{\aname{webinterface}{Web Interface}}
|
|
\label{sec:webinterface}
|
|
\ind{web interface}
|
|
|
|
To perform online configuration of \ejabberd{} you need to enable the
|
|
\term{ejabberd\_http} listener with the option \term{web\_admin} (see
|
|
section~\ref{sec:listened}). Then you can open
|
|
\verb|http://server:port/admin/| in your favourite web browser. You
|
|
will be asked to enter the username (the \emph{full} \Jabber{} ID) and password
|
|
of an \ejabberd{} user with administrator rights. After authentication
|
|
you will see a page similar to figure~\ref{fig:webadmmain}.
|
|
|
|
\begin{figure}[htbp]

|
\insimg{webadmmain.png}
|
|
\caption{Top page from the web interface}
|
|
\label{fig:webadmmain}
|
|
\end{figure}
|
|
Here you can edit access restrictions, manage users, create backups,
|
|
manage the database, enable/disable ports listened for, view server
|
|
statistics,\ldots
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item You can serve the web interface on the same port as the
|
|
\ind{protocols!JEP-0025: HTTP Polling}HTTP Polling interface. In this example
|
|
you should point your web browser to \verb|http://example.org:5280/admin/| to
|
|
administer all virtual hosts or to
|
|
\verb|http://example.org:5280/admin/server/example.com/| to administer only
|
|
the virtual host \jid{example.com}. Before you get access to the web interface
|
|
you need to enter as username, the JID and password from a registered user
|
|
that is allowed to configure \ejabberd{}. In this example you can enter as
|
|
username `\jid{admin@example.net}' to administer all virtual hosts (first
|
|
URL). If you log in with `\jid{admin@example.com}' on \\
|
|
\verb|http://example.org:5280/admin/server/example.com/| you can only
|
|
administer the virtual host \jid{example.com}.
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
...
|
|
{acl, admins, {user, "admin", "example.net"}}.
|
|
{host_config, "example.com", [{acl, admins, {user, "admin", "example.com"}}]}.
|
|
{access, configure, [{allow, admins}]}.
|
|
...
|
|
{hosts, ["example.org"]}.
|
|
...

{listen,

[...

{5280, ejabberd_http, [http_poll, web_admin]},
|
|
...
|
|
]
|
|
}.
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
\item For security reasons, you can serve the web interface on a secured
|
|
connection, on a port differing from the HTTP Polling interface, and bind it
|
|
to the internal LAN IP. The web interface will be accessible by pointing your
|
|
web browser to \verb|https://192.168.1.1:5280/admin/|:
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
...
|
|
{hosts, ["example.org"]}.
|
|
...
|
|
{listen,
|
|
[...
|

\label{sec:howitworks}

|
\ind{clustering!how it works}
|
|
|
|
A \Jabber{} domain is served by one or more \ejabberd{} nodes. These nodes can
|
|
be run on different machines that are connected via a network. They all
|
|
must have the ability to connect to port 4369 of all another nodes, and must
|
|
have the same magic cookie (see Erlang/OTP documentation, in other words the
|
|
file \term{\~{}ejabberd/.erlang.cookie} must be the same on all nodes). This is
|
|
needed because all nodes exchange information about connected users, s2s
|
|
connections, registered services, etc\ldots
|
|
|
|
Each \ejabberd{} node has the following modules:
|
|
\begin{itemize}
|
|
\item router,
|
|
\item local router,
|
|
\item session manager,
|
|
\item s2s manager.
|
|
\end{itemize}
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\aname{router}{Router}}
|
|
\label{sec:router}
|
|
\ind{clustering!router}
|
|
|
|
This module is the main router of \Jabber{} packets on each node. It
|
|
routes them based on their destination's domains. It uses a global
|
|
routing table. The domain of the packet's destination is searched in the
|
|
routing table, and if it is found, the packet is routed to the
|
|
appropriate process. If not, it is sent to the s2s manager.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\aname{localrouter}{Local Router}}
|
|
\label{sec:localrouter}
|
|
\ind{clustering!local router}
|
|
|
|
This module routes packets which have a destination domain equal to
|
|
one of this server's host names. If the destination JID has a non-empty user
|
|
part, it is routed to the session manager, otherwise it is processed depending
|
|
on its content.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\aname{sessionmanager}{Session Manager}}
|
|
\label{sec:sessionmanager}
|
|
\ind{clustering!session manager}
|
|
|
|
This module routes packets to local users. It looks up to which user
|
|
resource a packet must be sent via a presence table. Then the packet is
|
|
either routed to the appropriate c2s process, or stored in offline
|
|
storage, or bounced back.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\aname{s2smanager}{s2s Manager}}
|
|
\label{sec:s2smanager}
|
|
\ind{clustering!s2s manager}
|
|
|
|
This module routes packets to other \Jabber{} servers. First, it
|
|
checks if an opened s2s connection from the domain of the packet's
|
|
source to the domain of the packet's destination exists. If that is the case,
|
|
the s2s manager routes the packet to the process
|
|
serving this connection, otherwise a new connection is opened.
|
|
|
|
\subsection{\aname{cluster}{Clustering Setup}}
|
|
\label{sec:cluster}
|
|
\ind{clustering!setup}
|
|
|
|
Suppose you already configured \ejabberd{} on one machine named (\term{first}),
|
|
and you need to setup another one to make an \ejabberd{} cluster. Then do
|
|
following steps:
|
|
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item Copy \verb|~ejabberd/.erlang.cookie| file from \term{first} to
|
|
\term{second}.
|
|
|
|
(alt) You can also add `\verb|-cookie content_of_.erlang.cookie|'
|
|
option to all `\shell{erl}' commands below.
|
|
|
|
\item On \term{second} run the following command as the \ejabberd{} daemon user,
|
|
in the working directory of \ejabberd{}:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
erl -sname ejabberd \
|
|
-mnesia extra_db_nodes "['ejabberd@first']" \
|
|
-s mnesia
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
This will start Mnesia serving the same database as \node{ejabberd@first}.
|
|
You can check this by running the command `\verb|mnesia:info().|'. You
|
|
should see a lot of remote tables and a line like the following:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
running db nodes = [ejabberd@first, ejabberd@second]
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
|
|
\item Now run the following in the same `\shell{erl}' session:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verbatim}
|
|
mnesia:change_table_copy_type(schema, node(), disc_copies).
|
|
\end{verbatim}
|
|
|
|
This will create local disc storage for the database.
|
|
|
|
(alt) Change storage type of the \term{scheme} table to `RAM and disc
|
|
copy' on the second node via the web interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\item Now you can add replicas of various tables to this node with
|
|
`\verb|mnesia:add_table_copy|' or
|
|
`\verb|mnesia:change_table_copy_type|' as above (just replace
|
|
`\verb|schema|' with another table name and `\verb|disc_copies|'
|
|
can be replaced with `\verb|ram_copies|' or
|
|
`\verb|disc_only_copies|').
|
|
|
|
Which tables to replicate is very dependant on your needs, you can get
|
|
some hints from the command `\verb|mnesia:info().|', by looking at the
|
|
size of tables and the default storage type for each table on 'first'.
|
|
|
|
Replicating a table makes lookups in this table faster on this node.
|
|
Writing, on the other hand, will be slower. And of course if machine with one
|
|
of the replicas is down, other replicas will be used.
|
|
|
|
Also \footahref{http://www.erlang.se/doc/doc-5.4.9/lib/mnesia-4.2.2/doc/html/Mnesia\_chap5.html\#5.3}
|
|
{section 5.3 (Table Fragmentation) of Mnesia User's Guide} can be helpful.
|
|
% The above URL needs update every Erlang release!
|
|
|
|
(alt) Same as in previous item, but for other tables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\item Run `\verb|init:stop().|' or just `\verb|q().|' to exit from
|
|
the Erlang shell. This probably can take some time if Mnesia has not yet
|
|
transfered and processed all data it needed from \term{first}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
\item Now run \ejabberd{} on \term{second} with almost the same config as
|
|
on \term{first} (you probably do not need to duplicate `\verb|acl|'
|
|
and `\verb|access|' options --- they will be taken from
|
|
\term{first}, and \verb|mod_muc| and \verb|mod_irc| should be
|
|
enabled only on one machine in the cluster).
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
You can repeat these steps for other machines supposed to serve this
|
|
domain.
