mod_muc_moderation: Derive role from reserved nickname if occupant
When using a different client to moderate than the one used to
participate in the chat, e.g. a command line tool like clix, there's no
occupant and no role to use in the permission check. Previously the
default role based on affiliation was used. Now if you are present in
the room using your reserved nick, the role you have there is used in
the permission check instead of the default affiliation-derived role.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Stable' summary: Granular remote host blacklisting plugin ... Details ======= As often it's undesiderable to employ only whitelisting logics in public environments, this module let's you more selectively restrict access to your hosts (component or server host) either disallowing access completely (with optional exceptions) or blacklisting certain sources. Usage ===== Copy the plugin into your prosody's modules directory. And add it between your enabled modules into the global section (modules\_enabled): - The plugin can work either by blocking all remote access (s2s) to a certain resource with optional exceptions (useful for components) - Or by selectively blocking certain remote hosts through blacklisting (by using host\_guard\_selective and host\_guard\_blacklisting) Configuration ============= Option name Description ----------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- host\_guard\_blockall A list of local hosts to protect from incoming s2s host\_guard\_blockall\_exceptions A list of remote hosts that are always allowed to access hosts listed in host\_guard\_blockall host\_guard\_selective A list of local hosts to allow selective filtering (blacklist) of incoming s2s connections host\_guard\_blacklist A blacklist of remote hosts that are not allowed to access hosts listed in host\_guard\_selective Example ------- ``` {.lua} host_guard_blockall = { "no_access.yourhost.com", "no_access2.yourhost.com" } -- insert here the local hosts where you want to forbid all remote traffic to. host_guard_blockall_exceptions = { "i_can_access.no_access.yourhost.com" } -- optional exceptions for the above. host_guard_selective = { "no_access_from_blsted.myhost.com", "no_access_from_blsted.mycomponent.com" } -- insert here the local hosts where you want to employ blacklisting. host_guard_blacklist = { "remoterogueserver.com", "remoterogueserver2.com" } -- above option/mode mandates the use of a blacklist, you may blacklist remote servers here. ``` The above is updated when the server configuration is reloaded so that you don't need to restart the server. Compatibility ============= - Works with 0.8.x, successive versions and trunk.
