One MUC, and one link

This is the solution:

abc.com has its mod_muc as usual, with the appropiate name "conference.abc.com".
xyz.com don't need mod_muc at all. Instead, tell mod_disco to add a link to "conference.abc.com".

Since the modules on one host and the other are different, you must configure their modules independently. On ejabberd.cfg, instead of

{modules, [
  ...
  {mod_muc, []},
  {mod_disco, []},
  ...
]}.

you must put something like


{host_config, "abc.com", [{modules, [
  ...
  {mod_muc, [{host, "conference.abc.com"}]},
  {mod_disco, []},
  ...
]}]}.

{host_config, "xyz.com", [{modules, [
  ...
  %{mod_muc, []},   % Don't start mod_muc on this host
  {mod_disco, [{extra_domains, ["conference.abc.com"]}]},
  ...
]}]}.

Your ejabberd.cfg file will be a lot larger, but it should work.
