# Configuring Ejabberd (XMPP Server) to use Pleroma for authentication
If you want to give your Pleroma users an XMPP (chat) account, you can configure [Ejabberd](https://github.com/processone/ejabberd) to use your Pleroma server for user authentication, automatically giving every local user an XMPP account.
In general, you just have to follow the configuration described at [https://docs.ejabberd.im/admin/configuration/authentication/#external-script](https://docs.ejabberd.im/admin/configuration/authentication/#external-script). Please read this section carefully.

Copy the script below to suitable path on your system and set owner and permissions. Also do not forget adjusting `PLEROMA_HOST` and `PLEROMA_PORT`, if necessary.
```bash
cp pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py /etc/ejabberd/pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py
chown ejabberd /etc/ejabberd/pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py
chmod 700 /etc/ejabberd/pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py
```
Set external auth params in ejabberd.yaml file:
```bash
auth_method: [external]
extauth_program: "python3 /etc/ejabberd/pleroma_ejabberd_auth.py"
extauth_instances: 3
auth_use_cache: false
```
Restart / reload your ejabberd service.

After restarting your Ejabberd server, your users should now be able to connect with their Pleroma credentials.
