c2s(8)

📦 version 2.6.1, in fedora 43, fedora 44

✨ c2s — client-to-server connector ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the c2s page 💖 this is part of the jabberd project, and yes it's section 8 of the manual, we love a system-administration moment 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

c2s [-h] [-c config] [-D]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. three little flags, so much power 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so c2s is literally the front door of your whole setup, no cap 🚪✨ It accepts incoming connections from clients, does all the authentication and registration functions for them, and then communicates with the session manager on their behalf because it's a supportive queen like that 💅

like, the clients show up, c2s handles the "who even are you" part and the "okay you can make an account" part, and then it goes and talks to the session manager for them. middle management but make it iconic 😭👑

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -h — show a lil summary of the options. a menu, if you will. a snack 🍓
  • -c — use an alternate configuration file instead. the compiled-in default is /etc/jabberd/c2s.xml, and yes that's the one it'll reach for if you don't say otherwise 💜
  • -D — print debugging output 🐛✨ lowkey useful. but listen: you gotta configure jabberd with the --enable-debug switch to actually enable this. otherwise it's just a flag sitting there doing nothing 🙈
