| Running openfire-3.7.0p5 on OpenBSD
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------

1) openfire requires a database.  If you intend on using the embedded
   (HSQLDB) database you may skip to step #2.  If you intend on using
   MySQL or PostgreSQL, instructions are available at:

    /usr/local/share/doc/openfire/database.html

2) openfire may be started by executing:

   /etc/rc.d/openfire start

   as root. To arrange for this to happen at boot, include 'openfire'
   in the pkg_scripts variable in /etc/rc.conf.local

3) After starting openfire, you may access the web interface at
   http://[hostname]:9090/; when you first login there is a configuration
   dialog. After enabling SSL, you can use https://[hostname]:9091/

4) openfire's automated setup and plugin installation services require
   several directories to be writable by the _openfire user.  When you
   complete the installation process, you may wish to tighten permissions
   on /usr/local/openfire and its subdirectories.

5) openfire's DIGEST-MD5 SASL mechanism does not interoperate very well.
   If you experience issues with client authentication, you may need to
   force the SASL mechanism to PLAIN by adding:

   <sasl><mechs>PLAIN</mechs></sasl>

   as the second-last line of /usr/local/openfire/conf/openfire.xml
   (e.g, just inside the closing XML tag).

   Then restart openfire for the changes to take effect.
