[JDEV] Changing Jabber Server Name To FQDN With Out XDB problems

[Tim Ferguson]

I have a little C++ routine to do this and it worked for all but one of my
users, and on that user it core dumped and since gdb is not ported to Tru64
I have not taken the time to figure out what went wrong.  I would be happy
to post it, not much documentation, temas or anyone else, would you mind
sending me a quick explanation for posting or the link as to where the
instructions are - sorry I am very pressed for time right at this moment.

The big question is whether or not you have had any external contact via
internal s2s?  If not you could make a script to change all the
subscriptions to the new jids, move the directory to the new name, and then
bring the server back up.  Sadly this might be a bit more complex for some
of the transports, since they do JID hashing to name their XDB files.
Browse one of the xdb files and see if it makes sense to you where to change
the names, and feel free to ask questions.

Any perl hackers want to make this script?  I know you can do it fast =)
