I've configured OpenFire for using as server for my customers.

But in following case, OpenFire doesn't give proper response:

Customer A login from two chat client connected to my server and chat with another Customer B. The problem is that, last active Customer A can only get Message from Customer B instead of getting message in both the chat client.

Anyone have configured the OpenFire can suggest me the settings need to be changed.

Thanks.

This is by design of XMPP, as can be seen in RFC3921, section 11.1 "Inbound Stanzas".

To send messages addressed to a bare JID in openfire to all related full JIDs (resources + bare JID), you need to set the system property route.all-resources with the value true in Openfire (Admin Console > Server Manager > System Properties). You will have to create this system property. Also you would have to set the same priority in both clients.
