Exactly but depending on the server implementation (not every server runs the jabberd) it could be another server, but if it is a jabberd then what you are saying is correct, although of course the ip address could well have a dns entry which you try to connect to instead of an IP but you do have to make sure that when connecting you specify the original domain/server name.
e.g. C: connect to jabber.org S: redirects to server2.jabber.org C: connects to server2.jabber.org, but when connecting uses jabber.org in the stream, not server2.jabber.org Richard ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ryan Eatmon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, December 04, 2002 12:44 AM Subject: Re: [JDEV] JEP-51 Server Transfer > > You wouldn't redirect them to a different server, you would redirect > them to a different IP that is part of the same server.

Then the client gets an iq-"Server Transfer", disconnects, and connects to another server e.g. "server2.jabber.org". How do other clients and servers (s2s) know that the client is connected to "server2.jabber.org". They will still know the user as "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and send messages through s2s to "jabber.org", not to "server2.jabber.org" where the user is connected. > > > >Questions to the public: does JEP-51 Server Transfer work, if messages (IMs) arrive from other users in other domains?
