Prosody subdomain #737

Open ghost opened 4 years ago

ghost commented 4 years ago

Is the xmpp.isabell.org domain really required? I didn't need it and it's not listed in the config.

taddydevil commented 4 years ago

I'll check it on my prosody servers.

You dont need to configure it in the uberspace - yes. My mistake, the domains confuse a little bit. But you need it in your dns records when you use the subdomain xmpp.isabell.org for the connection. But technically you can use directly the domain isabell.org instead of xmpp.isabell.org. I dont see a big problem but the guide should be adapt accordingly in the future.

Is a sub-sub-domain also possible, like xmpp.isabell.uber.space?

I would rather not use isabell.org as it really exists (for sale). Since isabell.uber.space is a reserved domain by Uberspace, this is fine. But if xmpp.isabell.uber.space is not possible, I'd rather use example.{com,org} instead, which are reserved as example domains by the IANA.

@jorsn Something like xmpp.isabell.uber.space is not possible because you cant create DNS-Records for your uberspace domain like "sub"-domains or SRV-Recorrds. You need a own domain and it is open to you how you configure the domains for prosody.

Maybe @luto can answer why the suggested domain isabell.org is used in the lab instead of example.com (is there any rule for that? )
