[jdev] Transport Registration

[James Bunton]

Hi everybody.

I just cooked up a neat little PHP script that will register you with a 
Jabber gateway.
If the Jabber gateway supports roster-subsync (That's Py*t), then your 
contacts will even be added to your list for you :)

Here's what it does..

1) Log into Jabber server
2) Send disco#items to the server's JID
3) Send disco#info to the JID of everything returned from the above 
request
4) Save to $gatewayjid When we find something that has 
category="gateway" and type="msn"
5) Send jabber:iq:register to $gatewayjid
6) Accept auth from $gatewayjid
7) Autoauthorise anything in the $gatewayjid domain that has 
roster-subsync flag
8) Respond with "I am not here" to any messages sent from MSN users in 
this time
9) Wait for 15 seconds
10) Disconnect from Jabber server

If there is a delay of more than 15 seconds between any of these steps, 
bail out & warn the user


Please feel free to try it out
http://msn-transport.jabberstudio.org/tarballs/webreg.tar.gz to 
download and try for yourself.
I suggest you install php4-mhash (otherwise passwords are sent in 
cleartext).
Apart from that it should just work in any PHP enabled web server.

Oh yeah, anybody with design skills, please have a look at index.php & 
style.css to make it prettier :)

Edit config.php to allow registration with ICQ, AIM, etc. I'll make a 
better way of doing this soon.
Thanks


Enjoy!
