XMPP Integration with eJabberd

Hi,

yesterday I started to implement a chat into Kolab.

I decided to use an XMPP Server connected to the Kolab-Ldap and decided to use eJabberD.

Installation was quite simple and the connection to Kolab-Ldap as well.

Download and install with the following command:

apt-get install ejabberd

and follow the instructions.

Here are my specific parameter for the auth against Kolab-LDAP (the other remain as they are):

%%{auth_method, internal}.
{auth_method, ldap}.
{ldap_servers, ["localhost"]}.
{ldap_port, 389}.
{ldap_rootdn, "cn=Directory Manager"}.
{ldap_password, "DontEvenThinkAboutIt"}.
{ldap_filter, "(objectClass=mailrecipient)"}.
{ldap_uids, [{"mail", "%u@%d"}]}.
{acl, admin, {user, "admin", "zion-control.org"}}.
{hosts, ["zion-control.org"]}.
{ldap_base, "ou=People,dc=zion-control,dc=org"}.

It's not necessary to register user in eJabberd, just create one in your kolab-webadmin.

If you want to check your eJabberD, go to :

http://youraddress:5280/admin

and login with your full mail address and password which you use for Kolab.

Next part would be to have an IM in roundcube...
