[JDEV] Question...

Hello,

auth components are not written as xdb components, they are services or jsm
modules.

Here is what the configuration could look like:

<service id="perlauth">
  <accept>
    <ip>127.0.0.1</ip>
    <port>2233</ip>
    <secret>secret</secret>
  </accept>
</service>

There is no need to have a <host/>, auth packets will be routed to your component
with the id.  You will also need to add this to your jsm config.

<service id="sessions">
...
  <jsm xmlns="jabber:jsm:config">
    ..
    <auth>perlauth</auth>
  </jsm>
</service>

You then will receive the following when a user attempts to authenticate:

<route type='auth' from='2 at jpolld.localhost/134566776' to='perlauth' oto='test at localhost'>
  <iq type='set' id='0'>
    <query xmlns='jabber:iq:auth'>
      <username>test</username>
      <password>foo</password>
      <resource>home</resource>
    </query>
  </iq>
</route>

A successful result would look like this:

<route type='auth' to='2 at jpolld.localhost/134566776' from='perlauth' oto='test at localhost'>
  <iq type="result" id="0"/>
</route>
