8. Router-users.xml Configuration

The sole purpose of the router-users.xml file is to provide a list of user and password pair(s) for authentication by the router. The default user (jabberd) is the user against which the other Jabberd components (sm, resolver, s2s and c2s) authenticate.

The router-users.xml file probably does not deserve its own section, except to encourage strongly that all Jabberd administrators change the default password on production servers. Using the default password (secret) leaves your Jabberd installation open to easy attack by malicious crackers.

Once the default password in router-users.xml is changed, the corresponding passwords must be changed in the following files:

      sm.xml
      resolver.xml
      s2s.xml
      c2s.xml

These passwords are found in the sections labeled Router connection configuration near the top of the above listed files.
