I have a muc room with a list of 5 members and the others are guests.
The members are part of a company staff and I want their nicknames to be reserved
so a guest won't be able to pretend to be one of the staff.
The room is persistent so I need the nicknames to be reserved for the staff when they are logged off as well.
Thank you.
ejabberd doesn't implement
ejabberd doesn't implement support to reserve a nickname in a room.
It is possible to register a nick in the MUC service. For example, if registers in conference.example.org the nick "bob", nobody else can join any room in conference.example.org using the nick "bob". Only he can use that nick.
Note that in ejabberd 2.0.x, nick registrations are case sensitive, so "Bob" is a different nick than "bob". Related feature request:
