"Group" is too vague to mean anything in ejabberd world.

Anyway, multitenant in ejabberd is done using virtual host, as described in my first reply.

I don't think I have a complicated situation.

I have 1 ejabberd server where I want to place different groups of users. Only the users of 1 same group can see and chat to each other.

Like I said in my first post :

Members of company A should not be able to ever see or chat with members of company B and C.
Members of company B should not be able to ever see or chat with members of company A and C.
Members of company C should not be able to ever see or chat with members of company A and B.

So I have group A, with members.
I have group B with members
I have group C with members.

A member of group A should be able to see (and chat to) other members of group A but not to members of group B and C.

A sort of "multi-tenant" ejabberd server...

So you say I should create (virtual) hosts like this :

company1.xmpp.mydomain.tld
company2.xmpp.mydomain.tld
company3.xmpp.mydomain.tld

It is not possible to have all the members on the same domain "xmpp.mydomain.tld" and seperate them into 'groups' where only members of the same 'group' can see (and chat to) each other ?

ejabberd supports virtual hosting. You can have an XMPP domain per company on a single ejabberd instance. You can find more details in ejabberd documentation: https://docs.ejabberd.im/admin/guide/configuration/#virtual-hosting
