Users will login with their username or their email address.

-> if you have two users with the same name, you need to give them different usernames.

Mon Feb 23 2015 06:35:12 EST from dothebart @ Uncensored Subject: Re: Multiple domains support

you can configure them in Aministration -> Domain names and Internet mail configuration

Your users can then choose to receive mails on those domains.

If you need strict separation there are two options:

 - don't allow users to edit their personal vcards (and do it for them)

 - run two separate citadel instances with each one domain configured.

 

I am giving up on mcabber.  Seems broken.

can you try to install the 13.1 berkeley db rpm on the 13.2?

Hello,

Does anyone know how to set up secure authentication with Citadel.

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi everyone.

This morning I made some small but *very* effective bugfixes to the XMPP service in Citadel. These changes are *live* here on Uncensored. So far, I have tested the following clients:

* Pidgin (of course)
* jwchat.org (a web-based client ... not sure why you'd use this in production since WebCit has a chat client built in, but it tested clean and that's good)
* Xabber (a client for Android)

All three are working great now. So here's where you come in, folks ... if you have any other favorite clients, now's the time to test them. Again, test them here on Uncensored, not on a released version of Citadel, as we haven't published this code yet. I suppose you could also test against git master if you really insist on your own server.

Here are the tests that need to be run:

1. When you log in, the roster should populate with all other users who are logged in.
2. Send and receive instant messages (of course).
3. When users log in and out, they appear and disappear from the roster.
4. The roster of a Citadel account should *never* show any "offline buddies."
This is because Citadel's XMPP implementation assumes that the user community should always consist of the people currently logged in to the server, and sends roster pushes to reflect this.

If you test a client and the above four tests pass, please post your results so we can include that client in the next release announcement.

I just logged in to uncensored xmpp/jabber with the "bitlbee"  (IRC to xmpp gateway) client. This is for users of the "irssi" IRC client, which i know at least one of you here uses, and means you can access all xmpp chat rooms while using IRC (on colsole).

Here is how i set it up:

1) Install bitlbee:        I used my linux distros package manager 

2) connect  to bitlbee deamon:     start the  IRC client, irssi;-  

•  issue:  /connect bitlbee  (or /connect localhost  even:   you should now be in the bitlbee control channel)

3) setup/register an account password for your new bitlbee account** on your machine:

•   issue: register

•  issue: /oper

•  issue: <your-new-bitlbee-account_password>

4) add a xmpp/jabber account:-  

• issue:   account add  jabber  <username>@uncensored.citadel.org
• issue: /oper <return>

• issue: <your-uncensored-account_password>

to check the account has been added successfully:

• issue: account list

you can add further accounts; twitter, gtalk, facebook etc...

 ** When you come to start up the irssi client next, you will be prompted for your bitlbee password; when you login you will automatically login to 'all' your xmpp/jabber accounts

5) login and chat:  use either the numeric or name ID of the account (you can see the numeric ID when you 'list' the accounts):-

• issue: account <ID> on     (logout is: account <ID> off, if needed)

You should now see the names of,all your account's, contacts in the bitlbee control channel

to chat with someone in the bitlbee control channel:

• issue: <contact_name>: <message>    (don't forget the colon after contact's name ;) )

or, which i find 'much' easier if there are alot of people from various xmpp accounts added and 'lot' of contacts in the bitlbee controlo channel:

• issue: /msg <contact_name> <message>      (and a separate channel will be opened for you and your contact - much easier)

Now that was to test. To set up so you auto login each time see irssi docs and use same setup for bitlbee as they use for facebook.

Bitlbee and irssi, more info:

1)

Here is a link to the bitlbee facebook howto.

https://wiki.bitlbee.org/HowtoFacebook

I used the old way to login, with a password, you might want to use OAuth.

2)

and also here is the docs i used, which might be better. I posted them up on my blog on uncensored. See the comments for the docs.

http://uncensored.citadel.org/readfwd?go=trinkets%20and%20oddities?p=1883055487

On first impressions, it all works great! I logged in to uncensored with my console iorc client irssi. I saw all 'most' of the logged in users on uncensored - but not all?

I left a message for someone and had a chat with them. Great!

I was logged on to webcit at the same time as using my console irc client and the webcit chat/xmpp window opened up as soon as my chat was responded to (via my friends android client - pidgin i believe(?)).

I could see all the messages typed from my friend on both my webcit and irc client. However the two clients i used do not sync ( i typed some messages in my irc client, some on webcit and they were both seen by my friend (on his android client) but i could not see what i typed from webcit on my irc client and the also the other way ) - so you need use one or the other clients to see 'all' your messages in one window.

Still it works like a charm.

See my previous post here (no Subject) for a few links to Docs.

Just in case it gets missed, this is how i succesfully tested the irssi with bitlbee xmpp client on console:

To add: although i cannot see 'all' of what i typed when alternating between two clients, i 'can' see the full log/conversation in the "sent/recieved pages" room/page on uncensored, so that's great.

Not a great issue if you only chat on one client at a time ;)

When connecting to WebCit, the message "This program was unable to connect or stay connected to the Citadel server. Please report this problem to your system administrator" appears.

I keep getting this after server runs for about 5 min then I need to reboot and Ideas

I run this and it says there are no updates, I have 8.24, I notice that here it is 8.29 and 8.30. I used the Easy Installer  sudo wget -q -O - http://easyinstall.citadel.org/install | sh .

Am I doing something wrong or is this not been updated?

Hi all,

I am new to citadel so i apologize if this has been asked / answered before.

When a user is on the web interface for citadel, does the inbox auto refresh to show newly arrived email messages?

Thanks,

K.

No, currently only instant messages are polled from the server.

Restart the Citserver

it stops and in the log it says shutting down to prevent data loss.

Appears the Database is corrupted and when I try to do a repair it completes by then no accounts work at all. so I bring back the backup and it starts working again.
