<TT>ejabberd</TT> is a Free and Open Source distributed fault-tolerant Jabber
server. It is writen mostly in Erlang.<BR>
<BR>
Main features of ejabberd is:
<UL><LI>
Distributed. You can run ejabberd on a cluster of machines and
 all of them will serve one Jabber domain.
<LI>Fault-tolerance. You can setup an ejabberd cluster so that all
 information required for a properly working service will be stored
 permanently on more then one node. This means that if one of the
 nodes crashed, then the others continue working without disruption.
 You can also add or replace more nodes ``on the fly''.

<A NAME="sec:initconfig"></A>
Configuration file is loaded after first start of <TT>ejabberd</TT>. It consists of
sequence of Erlang terms. Parts of lines after <TT>`%'</TT> sign are ignored.
Each term is tuple, where first element is name of option, and other are option
values. Note, that after first start all values from this file stored in
database, and in next time they will be APPENDED to existing values. E.&nbsp;g.
if this file will not contain ``host'' definition, then old value will be
used.<BR>
<BR>
To override old values following lines can be added in config:
<PRE>
override_global.
override_local.
override_acls.
</PRE>With this lines old global or local options or ACLs will be removed before
adding new ones.<BR>
<BR>
<!--TOC subsubsection Host Name-->

<H4><A NAME="htoc9">3.1.1</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;Host Name</H4><!--SEC END -->

<A NAME="sec:confighostname"></A>
Option <TT>hostname</TT> defines name of Jabber domain that <TT>ejabberd</TT>
serves. E.&nbsp;g. to use <TT>jabber.org</TT> domain add following line in config:
<PRE>
{host, "jabber.org"}.
</PRE>
<!--TOC subsubsection Access Rules-->

<H4><A NAME="htoc10">3.1.2</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;Access Rules</H4><!--SEC END -->

<A NAME="sec:configaccess"></A>
Access control in <TT>ejabberd</TT> is done via Access Control Lists (ACL).
Declaration of ACL in config file have following syntax:
<PRE>
{acl, &lt;aclname&gt;, {&lt;acltype&gt;, ...}}.
</PRE>
<TT>&lt;acltype&gt;</TT> can be one of following:
<DL COMPACT=compact><DT>
<B><TT>all</TT></B><DD> Matches all JIDs. Example:
<PRE>
{acl, all, all}.
</PRE><DT><B><TT>{user, &lt;username&gt;}</TT></B><DD> Matches local user with name
 <TT>&lt;username&gt;</TT>. Example:
<PRE>
{acl, admin, {user, "aleksey"}}.
</PRE><DT><B><TT>{user, &lt;username&gt;, &lt;server&gt;}</TT></B><DD> Matches user with JID
 <TT>&lt;username&gt;@&lt;server&gt;</TT> and any resource. Example:
<PRE>
{acl, admin, {user, "aleksey", "jabber.ru"}}.
</PRE><DT><B><TT>{server, &lt;server&gt;}</TT></B><DD> Matches any JID from server
 <TT>&lt;server&gt;</TT>. Example:
<PRE>
{acl, jabberorg, {server, "jabber.org"}}.
</PRE><DT><B><TT>{user_regexp, &lt;regexp&gt;}</TT></B><DD> Matches local user with name that
 mathes <TT>&lt;regexp&gt;</TT>. Example:
<PRE>
{acl, tests, {user, "^test[0-9]*$"}}.
</PRE><DT><B><TT>{user_regexp, &lt;regexp&gt;, &lt;server&gt;}</TT></B><DD> Matches user with name
 that mathes <TT>&lt;regexp&gt;</TT> and from server <TT>&lt;server&gt;</TT>. Example:
<PRE>
{acl, tests, {user, "^test", "localhost"}}.
</PRE><DT><B><TT>{server_regexp, &lt;regexp&gt;}</TT></B><DD> Matches any JID from server that
 matches <TT>&lt;regexp&gt;</TT>. Example:
<PRE>
{acl, icq, {server, "^icq\\."}}.
</PRE><DT><B><TT>{node_regexp, &lt;user_regexp&gt;, &lt;server_regexp&gt;}</TT></B><DD> Matches user
 with name that mathes <TT>&lt;user_regexp&gt;</TT> and from server that matches
 <TT>&lt;server_regexp&gt;</TT>. Example:
<PRE>
{acl, aleksey, {node_regexp, "^aleksey", "^jabber.(ru|org)$"}}.
</PRE><DT><B><TT>{user_glob, &lt;glob&gt;}</TT></B><DD>
<DT><B><TT>{user_glob, &lt;glob&gt;, &lt;server&gt;}</TT></B><DD>
<DT><B><TT>{server_glob, &lt;glob&gt;}</TT></B><DD>
<DT><B><TT>{node_glob, &lt;user_glob&gt;, &lt;server_glob&gt;}</TT></B><DD> This is same as
 above, but use shell glob patterns instead of regexp. This patterns can have
 following special characters:
 <DL COMPACT=compact><DT>
 <B><TT>*</TT></B><DD> matches any string including the null string.
 <DT><B><TT>?</TT></B><DD> matches any single character.
 <DT><B><TT>[...]</TT></B><DD> matches any of the enclosed characters. Character
 ranges are specified by a pair of characters separated by a <TT>`-'</TT>.
 If the first character after <TT>`['</TT> is a <TT>`!'</TT>, then any
 character not enclosed is matched.
 </DL>
</DL>
Following ACLs pre-defined:
<DL COMPACT=compact><DT>
<B><TT>all</TT></B><DD> Matches all JIDs.
<DT><B><TT>none</TT></B><DD> Matches none JIDs.
</DL>
Allowing or denying of different services is like this:
<PRE>
{access, &lt;accessname&gt;, [{allow, &lt;aclname&gt;},
                        {deny, &lt;aclname&gt;},
                        ...
                       ]}.
</PRE>When JID is checked to have access to <TT>&lt;accessname&gt;</TT>, server
sequentially checks if this JID in one of the ACLs that are second elements in
each tuple in list. If one of them matched, then returned first element of
matched tuple. Else returned ``<TT>deny</TT>''.<BR>
<BR>
Example:
<PRE>
{access, configure, [{allow, admin}]}.
{access, something, [{deny, badmans},
                     {allow, all}]}.
</PRE>
Following access rules pre-defined:
<DL COMPACT=compact><DT>
<B><TT>all</TT></B><DD> Always return ``<TT>allow</TT>''
<DT><B><TT>none</TT></B><DD> Always return ``<TT>deny</TT>''
</DL>
<!--TOC subsubsection Listened Sockets-->

<H4><A NAME="htoc11">3.1.3</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;Listened Sockets</H4><!--SEC END -->

<A NAME="sec:configlistened"></A>
Option <TT>listen</TT> defines list of listened sockets and what services
runned on them. Each element of list is a tuple with following elements:
<UL><LI>
Port number;
<LI>Module that serves this port;
<LI>Function in this module that starts connection (likely will be removed);
<LI>Options to this module.
</UL>
Currently three modules implemented:
<DL COMPACT=compact><DT>
<B><TT>ejabberd_c2s</TT></B><DD> This module serves C2S connections.<BR>
<BR>
Following options defined:
 <DL COMPACT=compact><DT>
 <B><TT>{access, &lt;access rule&gt;}</TT></B><DD> This option defines access of users
 to this C2S port. Default value is ``<TT>all</TT>''.
 </DL>
<DT><B><TT>ejabberd_s2s_in</TT></B><DD> This module serves incoming S2S connections.
<DT><B><TT>ejabberd_service</TT></B><DD> This module serves connections to Jabber
 services (i.&nbsp;e. that use <TT>jabber:component:accept</TT> namespace).
</DL>
For example, following configuration defines that C2S connections listened on
port 5222 and denied for user ``<TT>bad</TT>'', S2S on port 5269 and that
service <TT>conference.jabber.org</TT> must be connected to port 8888 with
password ``<TT>secret</TT>''.
<PRE>
{acl, blocked, {user, "bad"}}.
{access, c2s, [{deny, blocked},
               {allow, all}]}.
{listen, [{5222, ejabberd_c2s,     start, [{access, c2s}]},
          {5269, ejabberd_s2s_in,  start, []},
          {8888, ejabberd_service, start,
           [{host, "conference.jabber.org", [{password, "secret"}]}]}
         ]}.

<A NAME="sec:configmodules"></A>
Option <TT>modules</TT> defines list of modules that will be loaded after
<TT>ejabberd</TT> startup. Each list element is a tuple where first element is a
name of module and second is list of options to this module. See
section&nbsp;<A HREF="#sec:modules">A</A> for detailed information on each module.<BR>
<BR>
Example:

recommended to load <TT>mod_disco</TT> (see section&nbsp;<A HREF="#sec:moddisco">A.5</A>), because
<TT>mod_configure</TT> highly integrates with it. Also recommended to use disco- and

<A NAME="sec:howitworks"></A>
Jabber domain is served by one or more <TT>ejabberd</TT> nodes. This nodes can be
runned on different machines that can be connected via network. They all must
have access to connect to port 4369 of all another nodes, and must have same
magic cookie (see Erlang/OTP documentation, in short file
<TT>~ejabberd/.erlang.cookie</TT> must be the same on all nodes). This is
needed because all nodes exchange information about connected users, S2S
connections, registered services, etc...<BR>
<BR>
Each <TT>ejabberd</TT> node run following modules:
<UL><LI>
router;
<LI>local router.
<LI>session manager;
<LI>S2S manager;
</UL>
<!--TOC subsubsection Router-->

<H4><A NAME="htoc22">4.1.1</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;Router</H4><!--SEC END -->

This module is the main router of Jabber packets on each node. It route
them based on their destanations domains. It have two tables: local and global
routes. First, domain of packet destination searched in local table, and if it
finded, then packet routed to appropriate process. If no, then it searched in
global table, and routed to appropriate <TT>ejabberd</TT> node or process. If it not
exists in both tables, then it sended to S2S manager.<BR>
<BR>
<!--TOC subsubsection Local Router-->

<H4><A NAME="htoc23">4.1.2</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;Local Router</H4><!--SEC END -->

This module route packets which have destination domain equal to this server
name. If destination JID have node, then it routed to session manager, else it
processed depending on it content.<BR>
<BR>
<!--TOC subsubsection Session Manager-->

<H4><A NAME="htoc24">4.1.3</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;Session Manager</H4><!--SEC END -->

This module route packets to local users. It search to what user resource
packet must be sended via presence table. If this reseouce connected to this
node, it routed to C2S process, if it connected via another node, then packet
sended to session manager on it.<BR>
<BR>
<!--TOC subsubsection S2S Manager-->

<H4><A NAME="htoc25">4.1.4</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;S2S Manager</H4><!--SEC END -->

This module route packets to another Jabber servers. First, it check if
already exists opened S2S connection from domain of packet source to domain of
destination. If it opened on another node, then it routed to S2S manager on
that node, if it opened on this node, then it routed to process that serve this
connection, and if this connection not exists, then it opened and registered.<BR>

<!--TOC subsubsection Option <TT>iqdisc</TT>-->

<H4><A NAME="htoc28">A.1.1</A>&nbsp;&nbsp;Option <TT>iqdisc</TT></H4><!--SEC END -->

Many modules define handlers for processing IQ queries of different namespaces
to this server or to user (e.&nbsp;g. to <TT>myjabber.org</TT> or to
<TT>user@myjabber.org</TT>). This option defines processing discipline of this
queries. Possible values are:
<DL COMPACT=compact><DT>
<B><TT>no_queue</TT></B><DD> All queries of namespace with this processing
 discipline processed immediately. This also means that no other packets can
 be processed until finished this. Hence this discipline is not recommended
 if processing of query can take relative many time.
<DT><B><TT>one_queue</TT></B><DD> In this case created separate queue for processing
 IQ queries of namespace with this discipline, and processing of this queue
 done in parallel with processing of other packets. This discipline is most
 recommended.
<DT><B><TT>parallel</TT></B><DD> In this case for all packets of namespace with this
 discipline spawned separate Erlang process, so all this packets processed in
 parallel. Although spawning of Erlang process have relative low cost, this
 can broke server normal work, because Erlang have limit of 32000 processes.
