“Real” Virtual Jabber Servers

While looking at Section 4.4.2 earlier in this chapter, we saw how to use multiple <host/> tags to allow connection to the Jabber server under multiple hostnames. Although this simple feature might be useful in some circumstances, a better distinction of Session Management functionality might be more appropriate.

Taking our a-domain.com and b-domain.com hostname examples again, we might want to offer different welcome messages to new users and limit the authentication possibilities for the b-domain.com host to zero knowledge only. We also may wish to disable the message filtering service for the a-domain.com host. Furthermore, we might want to offer—in the <browse/> list—a different set of services for each of the hosts.

Let’s have a look how this can be done. Using the <jabberd:include/> tag to organize our configuration XML by component instance definitions, we might have a jabber.xml configuration file that looks like Example 4-25.
