And if you disable mod_roster in ejabberd.cfg, the user cannot modify their roster... but he will not get the shared groups you configured.</p> <p>So, I think the best you can do is to use mod_shared_roster to enforce some contacts to your users. They cannot remove those contacts. They will be able to add more contacts.</p> <p>You should know that in Jabber people can chat with other people, even if they are not added as contacts. You can try that in your server.</p> Sun, 04 May 2008 16:46:59 +0000 mfoss comment 52328 at https://www.ejabberd.im
