mod_muc and multiple resources

augustineike — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 16:14:43 +0000

I went through the last post and I think there is a patch for this. Has this patch been implemented in the latest package? I use debain Lenny and the version of ejabberd is 2.1. I had the same problem there.
I want to move the company away from zephyr because it is linux centric. ejabberd has been great for my test but this feature is about to sink the project. Any help will be appreciated.

and what about anonymous rooms ?

To use muckl, i need to set a login/pass which is used by all users to connect to the room.

Example for 2 users (anonymous so not member of the room), will be:

user1: anonymous@server.com/uniqID1
user2: anonymous@server.com/uniqID2

In the room:

myRoom@chat.server.com/nick1
myRoom@chat.server.com/nick2

So if nick1 is allowed to change his nick to "nick2", on my side, there is no nick conflit.

Problem now is that if user3 want to send private message to initial nick1 ... user1 and user2 will receive the message ?

Is there a parameter to not allow same nick in a room ?

Not implemented. Proposed patch available.

You understand the XEP correctly, it is not implemented in ejabberd.

You can find a proposed patch in this ticket:
Allow multiple entry with same nick to MUC rooms.
Note however that the available patches have some shortcomings, mentioned in the comments in that page.
