mod_sasl2_fast: Fix harmless off-by-one error (invalidates existing tokens!) Problem: This was causing the key to become "<token>--cur" instead of the expected "<token>-cur". As the same key was used by the code to both set and get, it still worked. Rationale for change: Although it worked, it's unintended, inconsistent and messy. It increases the chances of future bugs due to the unexpected format. Side-effects of change: Existing '--cur' entries will not be checked after this change, and therefore existing FAST clients will fail to authenticate until they attempt password auth and obtain a new FAST token. Existing '--cur' entries in storage will not be cleaned up by this commit, but this is considered a minor issue, and okay for the relatively few FAST deployments.

summary: MongoDB Storage Module
...

Introduction
============

This is a storage backend that uses MongoDB. Depends on [luamongo
bindings](https://github.com/mwild1/luamongo)

This module is not under active development and has a number of issues
related to limitations in MongoDB. It is not suitable for production
use.

Configuration
=============

Copy the module to the prosody modules/plugins directory.

In Prosody's configuration file, set:

    storage = "mongodb"

MongoDB options are:

  Name         Description
  ------------ -------------------------------------------------------------------
  server       hostname:port
  username     your username for the given database
  password     your password for the given database (either raw or pre-digested)
  is\_digest   whether the password field has been pre-digested

Compatibility
=============

  ------- ---------------------------
  trunk   Untested, but should work
