Dear sudo-sys,
I set up a Mumble server for Sudo Room. It is running uMurmur on Sudo Room's saros
machine, and is reachable at address
room.sudorom.org.
Relevant files:
- /usr/local/etc/umurmur.conf - Server config file
- /usr/local/src/umurmur - Server source directory
- /usr/local/etc/systemd/system/umurmur.service - Systemd service file
- /etc/iptables/rules.v[46] - Firewalls updated to allow incoming connections on port
64738
Relevant commands:
- systemctl status umurmur - Check the server status
- sudo systemctl restart umurmur - Restart the server
- sudo journalctl -u umurmur -f - Follow the server log
uMurmur is a lightweight Mumble server implementation. I first learned of it from browsing
OpenWRT package repos. If you check e.g. htop, you can see it uses very little RAM or CPU.
Bandwidth usage should also be low, and is limited by some config settings.
More info on this Wiki page:

I also published a private message about it on Secure Scuttlebutt (SSB):

I hope this can be useful for Sudo Room people and groups wanting to have high-quality
low-latency voice chats, or who like Mumble and could use a server that is more
geographically close to them and not in a corporate cloud. Does sudo-sys have any feedback
before I share it to sudo-discuss?
Regards,
Charles (cel)
