Re: [lp-ca-on] Projects and common hosted GNU social and Jabber/XMPP

[Rudolf Olah]

Hi everyone,

I've got a server up and running on Gandi http://www.gandi.net. It's a little annoying that I had to pay extra for IPv4 but IPv6 is apparently barely supported and I can't convince the routers to act as IPv6 routes ;-)

https://prosody.im Prosody's default config lacks encryption but it's good enough that you only need to add a VirtualHost with a domain and some accounts and it'll work. Right now I have to add the accounts manually. I also added the MUC Multi User Chat component so Jabber/XMPP can act like IRC.

Federation is acting funky at the moment, I'm trying to talk to myself using the FSF jabber account (become a member of the FSF to get one: https://fsf.org/associate/benefits) and it isn't working, will sort it out later.

I'm installing ownCloud but I think 1gb RAM won't be enough when I get around to install GNU Social and Murmer (the Mumble server).

If anyone wants accounts for Jabber (or the other stuff that will eventually be setup), let me know

Just created a small section for projects on the LibrePlanet wiki: https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:LibrePlanet_Ontario#Projects

On mumble during our meeting we can discuss, but so far I'd like to set up GNU social and Jabber, in particular the Prosody server which has federation enabled.

Choosing the VPS has been a little harder than usual because we want to pick a provider that supports free software. So far Gandi is the pick because they don't offer Windows services at all, unfortunately they don't go further and have core boot servers and I think their control panel is proprietary (waiting for a reply on that). 

Please feel free to suggest a free software friendly VPS. I'd like to move on this as soon as possible.
