I know of neither. yum list "*jab*" only shows some perl-Jabber-*
packages, yum list "*irc*" gives back ircd-hybrid from the
kbs-CentOS-testing repository. So yes, ircd and jabberd aren't really in
CentOS. 

And I have no idea if ircd-hybrid is being able to interface into an
already existing user database, as it has its very own ways managing
"users".

Done.
