[JDEV] RE: jdev digest, Vol 1 #400 - 2 msgs

[Mickey Yalon]

I'm currently working on a project which requires that Ldap be used to
authenticate a 
jabber user and would like to take a look at Mark's new xdbldap release, but
can't find it 
under the list of open jabber projects.  Is there some where I can download
this from?

This isn't something I want to go in and hack, either now or later :-)

With a store-and-forward architecture, there has got to be some way to
expire messages.  What happens to messages if they can't be delivered?

Subject: [JDEV] A new xdbldap release
Reply-To: jdev at jabber.org

Hi,
I'm happy to say that we now have a 0.6 release of the xdbldap 
project (which adds LDAP support to the Jabber 1.0 server).

This version adds full support for registration, including removal of 
users (though it does require an external script for final cleanup, 
but the Jabber server I found out doesn't remove the user from the 
jspool directory, so my script takes care of that as well).

The only thing we're really missing is update of a VCard. 
Considering most people are going to want LDAP because of 
existing infrastructure, this is not *that* big of a deal, you can 
always put up a web page to accomplish that in the meantime.

Now here's where someone can help me :). If you run a local 
Jabber server and you use a Jabber client that allows you to update 
a VCard. do an update of your vcard, in particular your telephone 
number and you address information & send your user file from the 
jspool directory (ie . /usr/local/var/jspool/mewilcox.xml) to me. Feel 
free to put bogus values and remember to remove your password! 
What I'm trying to do is figure out how to best parse out VCard 
updates.

I normally use Jarl as my Jabber client and it doesn't do VCard. I 
can do a VCard update via a seperate script, but I want to see what 
it looks like from things like WinJab and Gabber.

thanks,

Mark
