[jdev] Re: Component for registering users

[Wojtek]

Hi,


Not all is clear for me.  Write whole packets, please.

If an user is auth'd why hasn't he an account?


Your component (comp.server.com) receives a packet of:
<route type='auth' ...>
   <iq type='set' ...>
     <query xmlns='jabber:iq:auth'> ... </query>
   </iq>
</route>

How is it routed from jsm?  Is registration enabled in jabber.xml file?


Then the component sends something like:
<xdb type='set' to='user at server.com' from='comp.server.com' 
xdbns='jabber:iq:auth'>
   <username>user</username>
</xdb>


Then the component sends:
<xdb type='set' to='user at server.com' from='comp.server.com'>
   <query xmlns='jabber:iq:auth' xdbns='jabber:iq:auth'>
     <user>user</user>
     <password>...</password>
     <resource>user's resource</resourc>
     <x xmlns='jabber:x:delay' stamp='20030324T08:56:10'>Registered</x>
   </query>
</xdb>

I think it should be jabber:iq:register.  Shouldn't it?

What is the final <route/> packet?


So, using the above technique I can try the following:
1. disable user registering in jabber.xml
2. login as admin with some client (the component rejects other user's 
packets)
3. send custom <message/> or <iq/> to comp.server.com (the component)
    with XML console (or silently with dedicated client)
4. analyze request
5. send
      <xdb type='set' to='user at server.com' ...>
        <query xmlns='jabber:iq:register' xdbns='jabber:iq:register'>
          <username>user</username>
          <password>123</password>
          ...
        </query>
      </xdb>
    or respond with an error
6. have user at server.com registered with 123 password

Will it work?
