=Configuring a Jabber/XMPP server with Zentyal=<br />
<br />
To configure the Jabber/XMPP server in Zentyal, first check the ''Module Status''<br />
and that the ''Users and Groups'' module is enabled - Jabber depends<br />
on this. Then, mark the ''Jabber'' checkbox to enable the Jabber/XMPP Zentyal module.<br />
<br />
To configure the service, go to ''Jabber'' in the left hand menu,<br />
and set the following parameters:<br />
<br />
[[File:en-2.2-images-jabber-jabber.png|center|450px|General Jabber Configuration]]<br />
<br />
''Jabber Domain'':Used for specifying the domain name of the server. User accounts will be ''user@domain''.<br />
<br />
''SSL Support'':It specifies whether the communications (authentication and chat messages) with<br />
the server are encrypted or plain text. You can disable it, make it mandatory or leave<br />
it as optional. If you set it as optional, this setting will be selected from the<br />
Jabber client.<br />
<br />
''Connect to other servers'':If you want to allow your users to contact other users on external servers,<br />
or the other way around, check this box. Otherwise, if you want a private<br />
server for your internal network, leave it unchecked.<br />
<br />
''Enable MUC (Multi User Chat)'':Enables conference rooms (chat with more than two users).<br />
<br />
To create a Jabber/XMPP user account, go to ''Users ‣ Add User''<br />
if you want to create a new user account, or to<br />
''Users ‣ Edit User'' if you just want to enable the Jabber<br />
account for an existing user.<br />
<br />
[[File:en-2.2-images-jabber-jabber-account.png|center|450px|Setting up a Jabber account]]<br />
<br />
As you can see, a section called ''Jabber account'' will appear, where you can<br />
select whether the account is enabled or disabled. Moreover, you can specify<br />
whether the user will have administrator privileges. Administrator privileges<br />
allow you to see which users are connected to the server, send them messages, set<br />
the message displayed when connecting (''MOTD'', Message Of The Day) and send a<br />
notice to all connected users (broadcast).<br />
