ejabberd - Comments for "Web Admin, Statistics Question" https://www.ejabberd.im/node/314 en do not authenticate on ejabberd https://www.ejabberd.im/node/314#comment-632 <blockquote>what the difference is between "Authentificated users" and "Online users"</blockquote> <p>Yes, it looks strange, so let's look at the code. On ejabberd_web_admin:get_stats/1 you can see that AuthUsers is the number of elements in the 'session' table and OnlineUsers is the number of elements in the 'presence' table. </p> <p>So the question remains: Is it possible to start a session but not having presence, or the inverse? I guess that using ejabberd to authenticate, but discarding the 'presence' part of XMPP. Or authenticating against external sources (LDAP...).</p> <blockquote>Authentification is not a valid word. Don't you just love the English language?</blockquote> <p>Well, it's not required. In fact, most if not all the developers and contributors to this project are non-native english speakers. I guess that when people read, write and speak in three different languages everyday, starts to construct new words :P</p> <p> Errors on the documentation, to <a href="/forum/13">this forum</a>. Errors on ejabberd, directly to Bugzilla. Thanks, I'll report this one. Your help is welcome! </p> Fri, 15 Jul 2005 18:36:02 +0000 mfoss comment 632 at https://www.ejabberd.im
