I am not sure if you really want to know what you have asked. I will 
tell you know you will disable SSL and only allow TLS - if your concern 
was, that you have not been offered STARTTLS, that it is something 
different.

By default, jabberd14 offers you SSL version 2, SSL version 3 and TLS 
version 1 at the same time. In version 1.6.0 of the server, you are able 
to disable support for SSL by disabling both SSLv2 and SSLv3. This is 
done with the no-ssl-v2='true' and no-ssl-v3='true' attributes on the 
<key/> element in the configuration. If both versions of SSL have been 
disabled, only TLS is left to be supported.

For all further questions, it would be helpful to know which version of 
jabberd14 you are using.
