hmm. Looks like I need to go the hard coded way from the client side.

But I still recommend to do this action from the subscriber side. <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div class="im"> /andy On Wed, Dec 5, 2012 at 4:52 PM, Sergey Dobrov <<a href="mailto:binary@jrudevels.org" target="_blank">binary@jrudevels.org</a> </div><div class="im"> <mailto:<a href="mailto:binary@jrudevels.org" target="_blank">binary@jrudevels.org</a>>> wrote: On 12/05/2012 06:16 PM, Kim Alvefur wrote: On 2012-12-05 11:00, andy nes wrote: Hey, I have a pubsub node, to which publishers publish their updates. As an admin and node owner, I want some users to subscribe to the node.

The protocol doesn't make it impossible for someone with sufficient privileges to subscribe someone else, see </div> <a href="http://xmpp.org/extensions/__xep-0060.html#subscriber-__subscribe" target="_blank">http://xmpp.org/extensions/__xep-0060.html#subscriber-__subscribe</a> <<a href="http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html#subscriber-subscribe" target="_blank">http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0060.html#subscriber-subscribe</a>><div class="im"> And the server can of course do whatever it wishes to the subscription list. Hm, interesting note, it seems you're right. But don't sure if ejabberd supports this trick: If the bare JID portions of the JIDs do not match as described above and the requesting entity does not have some kind of admin or proxy privilege as defined by the implementation, the service MUST return a <bad-request/> error, which SHOULD also include a pubsub-specific error condition of <invalid-jid/>. -- Regards, Kim "Zash" Alvefur </div> _________________________________________________ JDev mailing list Info: <a href="http://mail.jabber.org/__mailman/listinfo/jdev" target="_blank">http://mail.jabber.org/__mailman/listinfo/jdev</a> <<a href="http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev" target="_blank">http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev</a>> Unsubscribe: <a href="mailto:JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org" target="_blank">JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org</a> <mailto:<a href="mailto:JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org" target="_blank">JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org</a>> _________________________________________________<div class="im"> -- With best regards, Sergey Dobrov, XMPP Developer and JRuDevels.org founder. </div> _________________________________________________ JDev mailing list Info: <a href="http://mail.jabber.org/__mailman/listinfo/jdev" target="_blank">http://mail.jabber.org/__mailman/listinfo/jdev</a> <<a href="http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev" target="_blank">http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev</a>> Unsubscribe: <a href="mailto:JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org" target="_blank">JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org</a> <mailto:<a href="mailto:JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org" target="_blank">JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org</a>> _________________________________________________<div class="im"> _______________________________________________ JDev mailing list Info: <a href="http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev" target="_blank">http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev</a> Unsubscribe: <a href="mailto:JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org" target="_blank">JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org</a> _______________________________________________ </div></blockquote><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"> -- With best regards, Sergey Dobrov, XMPP Developer and JRuDevels.org founder. _______________________________________________ JDev mailing list Info: <a href="http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev" target="_blank">http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev</a> Unsubscribe: <a href="mailto:JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org" target="_blank">JDev-unsubscribe@jabber.org</a> _______________________________________________ </div></div></blockquote></div> </div>
