It is for an intranet and I do not want users to use the client of their choice for several reasons.

Or is it another way ?</p></div> <p>It is not possible, and it never will be as clients easily can pretend they are another client. E.g., I heard that JAJC can claim it is another client (e.g. Psi). I know that Wildfire Enterprise claims this as a feature, but as it easily can be bypassed, it actually isn't a feature at all.</p> <p>Another option might be client certificates (TLS), but AFAIK this is not yet supported by ejabberd and these certificates also easily can be used by other clients I think.</p> Tue, 11 Jul 2006 08:06:57 +0000 sander comment 1993 at https://www.ejabberd.im
