is the core of the jabber server containing the routing functionality that
is extended by specific logic, that is loaded from shared objects specified
in the configuration file.
.SH OPTIONS

Output debugging information while running. This option disabled
backgrounding of the jabberd process. The debugging output is either

jabber.xml). The given mask is ORed with the mask given in the
configuration file and each bit in the result enables a category of
debug logging messages. You can further limit the information that
is printed by using the -Z option.

Like -d but enables debugging output of all types.

files without the extension. (E.g. debugging statements in 'jabberd.c'
correspond to the zone 'jabberd'.)
