Register own XMPP domain now!

Submitted by admin on Tue, 04/13/2010 - 14:24

Yes, this is possible now.

You can have XMPP service running for your own domain. The only condition right now is that this must be a DNS registered domain and DNS must point to the following DNS address: tigase.me. Please note, do not confuse it with tigase.im domain name.

We recommend to use SRV records as this is required by XMPP specification but as some DNS services do not allow for SRV records yet we do not require SRV records either. If you want to register: your-domain.tld on our XMPP service make sure that either the command:

 $ host your-domain.tld
your-domain.tld has address 94.23.164.209

displays 94.23.164.209 address or commands:

 $ host -t SRV _xmpp-server._tcp.your-domain.tld
_xmpp-server._tcp.your-domain.tld has SRV record 10 0 5269 tigase.me.
 $ host -t SRV _xmpp-client._tcp.your-domain.tld
_xmpp-client._tcp.your-domain.tld has SRV record 10 0 5222 tigase.me.

display tigase.me DNS name. We strongly recommend not to use the IP address directly however, as if the service grows too much, it will be much easier for us to migrate, expand it using the DNS name rather then IP address.

If you want to have MUC and PubSub available under your domain, you have to setup DNS for muc.your-domain.tld and pubsub.your-domain.tld domains too.

Now, how do you register your domain with our service?

There are a few ways. I recommend to look at this guide describing how to add and manage your domain on your own. If you cannot or don't want to do it on your own, the way described in the guide please send us a message, either via XMPP to admin [at] tigase [dot] im or the contact form requesting new domain. User registration is available via in-band registration protocol. You can also specify whether you want to allow anonymous authentication to be available for your domain and you can specify maximum number of users for your domain.

Any comments or suggestions are very welcomed.

clarification

Thanks. I really don't understand at all from that.
Can you give an example?

Submitted by admin on Tue, 07/26/2011 - 15:27.

In such a case my suggestion

In such a case my suggestion is to find a friend who knows this stuff and can help. The examples in the articles are enough to set this up and there are differences between providers and DNS settings on various online systems, hence you need somebody who understands and can tell what exactly to set.

Full DNS entry?

What priority, weight, and port should we use for the SRV records?

Submitted by admin on Tue, 04/20/2010 - 08:32.

I have updated the article to

I have updated the article to include information you are asking for.
I normally set priority to 10, weight to 0 and port must be 5222 for clients connections and 5269 for server connections.

MUC and PubSub DNS

My question may be stupid, im a newbie on this.
You say:
"If you want to have MUC and PubSub available under your domain, you have to setup DNS for muc.your-domain.tld and pubsub.your-domain.tld domains too."

That are full DNSs entries? i mean; are not necesary Priority, Weight, Port, Target??

Sorry for my bad english.
Thanks.

Technically, DNS entries are

Technically, DNS entries are necessary only when you need communication between different servers. For local only communication DNS settings are not necessary.
We normally require only DNS settings for your main domain, and settings DNS for components you up to you.

cost

Hi i would like to know if there is any cost to register my own domain with your services. And, in this case, the prices vary depending on the number of accounts registered??

We do not host e-mail here,

We do not host e-mail here, only chat (XMPP, Jabber) and yes, you can have Jabber (XMPP) address in your domain: user [at] nelumboweb [dot] com [dot] ar hosted on this service. You have to configure DNS correctly, as described in the post and send me a message.
I will add your domain to our service.
