Updating dox for mod_rest. Ideas expressed / clarified: 1) Making clear that mod_rest isn't to be installed under VirtualHosts AND as a component. 2) Understanding some of the implications of this choice: A) Changes to user authentication B) How it affects subdomains 3) More consistent use of domain names for clarity. 4) Using different heading sizes to show scope of section. Essentially, I added all the tidbits I had to clarify in getting this to work in my own example.

Introduction
------------

Registration Redirect as explained in the [IBR
XEP](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0077.html#redirect).

Details
-------

This module shows instructions on how to register to the server, should
it be necessary to perform it through other means Out-Of-Band or not,
and also let's registrations origining from ip addresses in the
whitelist to go through normally.

Usage
-----

Copy the module file into your Prosody modules directory.

The module will work "out of the box" as long as at least an admin entry
is specified (see admins = {} option into prosody's documentation).These
are the optional parameters you can specify into your global
server/hostname configuration:

    registration_whitelist = { "*your whitelisted web server ip address*" }
    registration_url = "*your web registration page url*"
    registration_text = "Your custom instructions banner here"
    registration_oob = true (default) or false, in the case there's no applicable OOB method (e.g. the server admins needs to be contacted by phone)

To not employ any whitelisting (i.e. registration is handled
externally).

    no_registration_whitelist = true
