Hi,
I wanted to run a jabber server that I expect to serve 10,000 concurrent 
users. I already have a MySQL database for my users, so I decided to use 
xdb_sql-1.2. I compiled MSN, ICQ , Yahoo, and IRC transports without any 
problems, but when I tested what I've done. I found alot of problems. The 
server frequently crashes although there is only one client connected, I got 
few runtime errors from xdk_sql. When I stop the server I get SIGSEGV !!
I need to know the most stable combination for a jabber server.
Please advise me, which jabberd should I use ( 1.4 , or jabber2 ) ?. Which 
versions of transports to use, and which xdb better works with MySQL database 
and all transports needed ?
Do I better run transports as standalone processes ?
I also found in CVS javver-transport module which contains mysql xdb module. 
Actually I don't understant what is this jabber-transport , is it a 
substitute for jabberd or what ? I couldn't find documentation about it.

I appreciate your help.

Regards.

Ramy
