[jadmin] Small Server Help

[Eric Biven]

All,

I need to set up a small jabber server (<10 users) but would like conferencing 
and a user's directory that is publicly available.  Obviously I'd also like 
to be able to let my users chat outside our server and vise versa.  I'm not 
opposed to a switch to jabber2, however ejabberd is out because I don't want 
to add Erlang to my server, it's simply too much weight for something that 
will get so little use.

I have a small jabberd14 1.6 server set up and the base system is working like 
a charm.  My configuration:

FreeBSD 6
jabberd14 1.6 (from ports)
conference 0.4.1 (from ports)
jud 0.5 (from ports)
MySQL (from ports)

I'm having a heck of a time getting the conference and jud to work, though.  
I've found some sparse documentation that says you need to use xdb-file for 
them instead of the MySQL for storage, but I haven't been able to make that 
work.  I'd prefer that my users and their status be in MySQL so that I can 
more easily make that available to my web site, but I'm not sold that it must 
happen.  Where the rest of the data lives is irrelevant to me.

I have 4 DNS SRV records set, though documentation was pretty sketchy there as 
well:

_xmpp-client._tcp.imitix.com. in srv  0 5 5222 imitix.com.
_xmpp-server._tcp.imitix.com. in srv  0 5 5269 imitix.com.
_xmpp-server._tcp.conference.imitix.com. in srv  0 5 5269 imitix.com.
_xmpp-server._tcp.users.imitix.com. in srv  0 5 5269 imitix.com.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Eric
