Beta Version Only
Jabber-supported databases include:
• PostgreSQL 8.1 – This database must be configured to be SQL_ASCII.
• Oracle
®
9i, Release 2; Oracle 10g, R2 – For either version of Oracle, you must install
the Oracle 9 client libraries (9.2.0.4) on your Jabber XCP server.
•DB2
®
version 8.2
• Microsoft SQL Server 2000, SP4 – You must use version 2000.80.194.00 or higher of
the ODBC driver that comes with SQL Server 2000.
• Microsoft SQL Server 2003, SP1 and R2
• SQLite3-3.2.2.0 – This database, which is included in the Jabber XCP server
installation, is recommended only for installations that support fewer than 500 users.
The SQLite database should be stored on a local drive. Storing
the database on a remote drive may cause corruption or loss of
data when the file server or network fails. Using remote drives
can also cause poor SQLite performance.
Supported Directory Servers
Jabber XCP supports the use of LDAP and Microsoft Active Directory (Microsoft’s
version of LDAP) to store and search user registration, authentication, and vCard
information, and to use the Community Group feature.

group like users together; for example, to group users who are in the same department.
