Start a client and connect. Register with the jud. Perform a search and my jud entry can be found. Restart server. Start a client and connect. Perform a search and my jud entry cannot be found.   If I reregister, the ./spool/jud/global.xdb file is updated correctly without being overwritten.  However, if I perform a search, I can only find users that have registered since the last server restart.  Even though their entries are still in the global.xdb file.   So, I went digging into the code.  I think the culprit may be xdb_get and I wanted to see what you guys thought.  In the file xdb.c find the function xdb_get.  It would appear that this function ALWAYS returns null.  And this may be the reason why the information in global.xdb isn't being loaded correctly.   Here is a copy of what I think the offending code is:       /* return the xmlnode inside <xdb>...</xdb> */     for(x = xmlnode_get_firstchild(newx.data); x != NULL && xmlnode_get_type(x) != NTYPE_TAG; x = xmlnode_get_nextsibling(x));       /* there were no children (results) to the xdb request, free the packet */     if(x == NULL)         xmlnode_free(newx.data);       return x;   The for loop will always ensure that x is NULL after it has run.  Therefore, the return x statement is always going to return NULL.  Am I incorrect in my interpretation?  Wouldn't this break loading of the global.xdb file?   Thanks for any information you might be able to provide.  I've been banging my head against this for a few days now.   John Crosswhite </div> </body> </html>
