Mageia forum

I want to create my own Jabber Server on Mageia, what do I need to install for the Jabber Service? I've used all of the outside services, and I have a need to create my own.

Thank you.

Well, probably either ejabberd or djabberd and their respective documentation

Thank you. Can these be found with the normal Mageia Mirrors?

I have done the `urpmq --list | grep -i jabber` and get the empty set (null).

Can you point me to the correct mirror? Or tell me what I need to add to my existing mirrors?

Thank you.

This is what I get:

ufn is a simple alias for urpmf -f -m --name packagename

Code: Select all

[doktor5000@Mageia4 ~]$ grep -A2 ufn ~/.bashrc
function ufn() {
  urpmf -f -m --name "$@" | sort
}

Here are the URLs:

Not sure what mirror/repos you have. Can you show

Code: Select all

urpmq --dump

Interestingly enough, one of the servers has nothing configured, which is why I posted this. The other server seems to have this configured.

urpmq --sources djabberd
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... noarch.rpm

Thank you for the information that you provided, I liked the shortcut that you provided as well.

Have a great weekend!

Hey Doctor, any particular reason that you used a function, instead of an Alias??

Thank you.

When I tried first time, couldn't get the alias to work with the argument(s), as after the argument(s) output is piped to sort, so AFAIK you have to use a function.

The same with

Code: Select all

function rg() {
  rpm -qa | grep -i "$@" | sort
}

On a related note, have a look at viewtopic.php?f=41&t=3472&p=25966 for amore complete listing and the explanations.

Interesting. I have used aliases in my Admin needs for quite a while. I am a big advocate of Less is more. Sharing back, here are a few that I have in my system.

Code: Select all

ns6.abs-comptech.com root
[/root] alias
alias cd..='cd ..'
alias cdadm='cd /sysadm/scripts'
alias cddata='cd /sysadm/data'
alias cdlogs='cd /sysadm/logs'
alias cdmail='cd /etc/mail'
alias cdspam='cd /etc/mail/spamassassin'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias d='ls'
alias df='df -h -x supermount'
alias du='du -h'
alias h='history'
alias kde='xinit /usr/bin/startkde'
alias kkm='kill `sm | grep -v grep | awk '\''{print $1}'\''`'
alias ksm='service sendmail stop ; killall sendmail ; sm '
alias l='ls'
alias la='ls -a'
alias ll='ls -l'
alias ls='ls -F --color=auto'
alias lsd='ls -d */'
alias lsmail='ls /etc/mail'
alias lsspam='ls /etc/mail/spamassassin'
alias md='mkdir'
alias mv='mv -i'
alias p='cd -'
alias rd='rmdir'
alias rm='rm -i'
alias rsm='service mimedefang start ; service sendmail start '
alias s='cd ..'
alias sm='ps ax | grep -E '\''sendmail|mimedefang|relaydelay'\'''

I hope that someone finds something useful.

[code

Less is more, eh? Why not

Code: Select all

alias sm='ps ax | grep -E ''sendmail|mimedefang|relaydelay"'

That is, singlequotes around the alias and doublequotes for grep -E "expression". Not sure why it looks that weird in the code box.
