Configure ejabberd to use streamhost proxy

I want to configure ejabberd to use an external SOCKS 5 Bytestream server for file transfer according to protocol XEP-0065. My questions are:

  1. How can i configure ejabberd (or any other jabber server) to advertise such a service to clients.
  2. Where do i find an S5B implementation.

Thanks

Solution

  • ejabberd supports XEP-0065 out of the box using a built-in module.

    To enable it, you have to uncomment the related clause in the configuration file, tweak its settings according to your setup and restart the server.
