I should have specified that the people in the organization are spread out in different locations. It sounds like it is difficult/dangerous to run an internet-facing IRC server and ejabberd is unstable? This is what VPNs are for. I haven't really heard anything seriously problematic about

Is ejabberd difficult to run over the internet safely? I doubt it. But you'd want to give the docs a thorough reading to make sure you have security questions locked down properly. Off the top of my head...don't allow remote registrations (i.e. don't allow clients to create accounts

[gentoo-user] Jabber server recommendation

At the risk of starting a religious war, I'd like to ask for a recommendation for a Jabber server. I just tried to install ejabberd, only to find out that it's written in erklang and that seems to crash on my system. I'd like a native C/C++ implementation. That leaves Jabber and jabber2

think that openfire is a hell of a jabber server... While ejabberd runs as erlang script, openfire is written in java which makes it depend on a actual vm with all it's disadvantages (slow, memory overhead, ...). Even if the configuration via Webinterface is really easy and comfortable, you have

of fighting with jabberd2 and muc, I'm about ready to give up with it. Of all the XMPP daemons, ejabberd has the best reputation. jabberd14, according to recent traffic on the -dev list, may be on its way out due to lack of a maintainer, so I wouldn't invest time into setting that up right now
