Will clustering work with LDAP authentication?

Submitted by Bedman on Wed, 2010-03-31 15:56

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a 2 node cluster just to see it work. I am using 'internal' authentication on both my nodes. Will this work or do I need to have a common LDAP authentication DB behind them both? It really seems like having a common authentication database behind all my ejabberd servers would be desirable.

Thanks!

That is your decision, as server administrator:

  • If you want to use internal auth: When configuring the Mnesia clustering, set the table 'passwd' to be shared between the nodes.
  • If you want to use LDAP/ODBC/extauth auth method: configure all the ejabberd to use the correct auth (connect to the LDAP server, ...)
