Good day,
I'm planning to setup ejabberd on OpenBSD 5.4 for a project as proof of
concept but I have no experience with XMPP stuff. Can somebody please point
me to the right direction how to configure ejabberd on current OBSD. Thank
you very much.

OK, so it's a bit hidden in the noise in the output, but the information
you need is in /usr/local/share/doc/pkg-readmes/ejabberd* (likewise there's
similar information for the other XMPP servers e.g. prosody and openfire)
Likewise, the ejabberd project does have documentation that works well:
http://www.process-one.net/docs/ejabberd/guide_en.html
I've installed a few XMPP servers, documented failings at:
http://www.nomoa.com/bsd/comms/xmpp.html
- OpenBSD 4.9, EjabberD 2.1.6 (followed the same sequence for later
installs on OpenBSD 5.0
Best of luck,
Sam T
