Regarding item 4, seriously, does everything ‎these days have to have a web interface? It just increases the attack surface. Adding a web interface means one more thing to protect against hackers, which means writing rules for the WAF or adding something else for fail2ban or sshguard to watch.

Agree (web). I wrote some years ago simple web interface for jabberd2, need to review it and rewrite for new one later. Its will be good for those who want it but not in jabberd2 code inside. Using it with mysql and postgresql - works perfectly wbr, brahmann On 30.05.2016 16:43,

That is one of the beauties of programs written around standard tools like ‎sql. You can hook into the database and add features, or not. ;-) In defense of web interfaces, you can hand off that administration task to someone else without granting login access to the server. Or depending on your

If you can create and maintain the database through standard programs (sqlite being my favorite), I don't mind the caching. But in a system that uses TLS, is a database lookup that significant of a time sink in the whole transaction flow.  This is interesting reading:

Do you really have to cache something in jabberd when the data can be pulled from the sql database? Sure the data has changed. But if you pull a fresh record each time, I don't see the issue.   Original Message   From: Tomasz Sterna Sent: Monday, May 30, 2016 11:40 AM To:
