DESCRIPTION

10       Login  to  a  chat  service. If no account is specified, the default is
11       used if one is configured. A local account is created with the  JID  as
12       it's name if it doesn't already exist. In case you want to connect to a
13       server via SASL ANONYMOUS (c.f. XEP-0175) you can also do that.

ARGUMENTS

28       <account>
29           The  local account you wish to connect with, or a JID if connecting
30           for the first time.
31
32       server <server>
33           Supply a server if it is different to the domain part of your JID.
34
35       port <port>
36           The port to use if different to the  default  (5222,  or  5223  for
37           SSL).
38
39       <server>
40           Connect to said server in an anonymous way. (Be aware: There aren't
41           many servers that support this.)
42
43       tls force
44           Force TLS connection, and fail if one cannot be  established,  this
45           is default behaviour.
46
47       tls allow
48           Use TLS for the connection if it is available.
49
50       tls trust
51           Force TLS connection and trust server's certificate.
52
53       tls legacy
54           Use  legacy TLS for the connection. It means server doesn't support
55           STARTTLS and TLS is forced just  after  TCP  connection  is  estab‐
56           lished.
57
58       tls disable
59           Disable TLS for the connection.
60

62           Default authentication process.
