Why not just use the presence packets to detect the nickname?

I need the original nickname, because the client im working on is for a
enterprise and one of their requirements is to have the nickname not
changed.

I already found the place where i can stop the nickname form being set,
but as you say is not too compatible, i was wondering if there were a
standard way of doing this or if some CVS update has it done.

Thanks

I can't think of a very neat way of doing that.

You could indeed modify the source so that the nickname isn't set, and 
then add a custom IQ handler to get/set it.

Not very compatible though. Why do you need to retrieve the user's 
current nickname?
