Implement Mumble!

Sunil Mohan Adapa requested to merge SunilMohanAdapa:mumble into master

Created by: SunilMohanAdapa

Thanks to the mumble package available in Debian, this simple set of changes implement installing and configuring Mumble. A change to packaging framework was necessary to fix issue with opening up firewall after a fresh install.

Following works:

  • Server gets installed using package framework (sans the bug that it only works after apt-get update).
  • Server automatically runs and no special configuration is required
  • Firewall automatically opens ports.
  • Enable/disable service (starts/stops daemon and disables it so the daemon would not run).
  • Connecting from clients (desktop, Android clients tested) into the default channel without authentication works.
  • Voice and text chat works.
  • Clients automatically discover the servers that are in LAN.

Possible future work:

  • Setting administrator password
  • Possibly install and expose Mumble Django based web interfaces which is already available in Debian.
  • Making Mumble use an LDAP server to avoid managing authenticated users.
