CUPS - XMPP Federation - Gtalk

[gpsriramdc]

Hi ,

We planned to do the XMPP federation between CUPS & Gtalk ( gmail.com). We have configured the required XMPP SRV Records & published in the public domain.

What is the dialback secret we have to configure for the federation with gmail.

Thanks in Advance

Did you ever get and answer to the dialback Secret Question?

[Joseph Hardy]

Dialback secret authenticaiton uses DNS to authenticate an inbound connection.  Basically, when an XMPP server recieves an inbound XMPP/TCP connection, it will include a dialback secret.  The XMPP server, looks up the server via DNS and initiates a second, outbound XMPP/TCP connection to the IP address provided by DNS.  The XMPP server checks to see if the dialback secret from both inbound and the outbound TCP connection match up.
