messenger.case.edu beta update
A couple of quick updates:
1. Just before the holidays, it came to my attention that port 5223 (the old SSL port for non-TLS clients) wasn't working right. After some troubleshooting, I determined that the problem was that the Oracle RTC process was listening on that port on all interfaces, and that Wildfire was not able to open the port because of that. If you're using something that has to use SSL instead of TLS (like iChat, for instance), go back to using port 5234.
2. As I briefly mentioned in the last post, the Jabber domain will be switching from "messenger.case.edu" to just "case.edu". I'm not sure when yet. We'll need to have special SRV records set up in DNS for server-to-server connections before this can happen. We'll also have to take the service down and do some SQL magic on its database.
3. I noticed 63 users were online at one point today, so we're starting to see some non-ITS users. I'd like to really get some good stress-testing in, but Jive is indicating we shouldn't have any problems.
If you have any feedback on the new IM service so far, either leave a comment here, or send an e-mail to im-admin@case.edu - we'd love to hear from you.
