Bug 100606

Summary:	/etc/services maps incorrect names for XMPP

Description Ralph Meijer 2006-07-20 12:50:15 UTC

The /etc/services file lists jabber-client and jabber-server mapped to ports r5222 and 5269 respectively. However, IANA changed the registration on 2004-02-20 to be xmpp-client and xmpp-server. This should be reflected in the /etc/services file. I don't think retaining the old names is needed (the IANA services file doesn't list them).

One of the problems this causes is that applications developed on Linux based systems, that do SRV lookups, and want to use the port number from /etc/services as a fallback, fail mysteriously.

Fix: 

Rename jabber-client and jabber-server to xmpp-client and xmpp-server, optionally using the former two as aliases.

  - Sync service names with IANA (http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers).
    The registration names for 5222(tcp,udp) and 5269(tcp,udp) was changed to
    xmpp-client and xmpp-server correspondingly.
  
    This inconsistency causes problems to applications developed on other
    systems, as they tries to use port numbers from /etc/services as fallback.
