Hi All,
I have installed ejabber2.0 on my machine and have created a couple users via UI and adding manually in cfg file. Now i could login with these new users.
I am new to jabber. I want to know:
1. How can i add friends so that i can see them as my friends and chat with them?
2. Do i always need to add users in ejabberd.cfg file, restart to relect the user?
Are there any API support to access the ejabber that i have installed on my machine.
Where can i find documentation regarding this.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advace.
Thanks,

1. There are several ways to add users but the main two are using the web admin interface or with in-band registration using a xmpp client. The users and their contact list (roster) are saved in a database.
2. ejabberd.cfg is for the server configurations. It tells ejabberd which modules to use, pass arguments to these modules and manage acl. Usually you'll set only few admin accounts in it. You don't use the config file for long list of users.
What do you mean by API?
There is an API for extending ejabberd functionally and adding more modules.
Registered users can login using any xmpp client and chat with other users.
