A voicechat utility for gamers
http://mumble.info/

What is Murmur?
===============
Murmur is the server component of Mumble, an open-source voice chat utility.
This package is a statically compiled version of Murmur for Linux. It is
independent of your distribution's package manager, and is intended to be
run as-is, or with minimal set up.
Running Murmur
==============
In this build of Murmur, the binary is called 'murmur.x86'. To get Murmur
up and running, simply execute the following command at your shell:
$ ./murmur.x86 -fg -ini murmur.ini
This will spawn a foregrounded (Murmur will, by default, run in daemon mode,
which means it will launch itself as a background process on your system).
The First Run
=============
When Murmur runs for the first time, it performs a few special initialization
steps, such as setting up its database, as well as generating a certificate
for its initial server and a password for the SuperUser user.
This password is important for setting up the Murmur server, so make a note
of it. It is output by the Murmur server the first time it runs, and will
look something like this:
<W> HH:MM:DD 1 => Password for 'SuperUser' set to '<YourSuperUserPassword>'
Initial User Setup
==================
Murmur has the concept of a 'SuperUser', which is the initial administrative user
used to configure your server. Typically, this user will only be used for initial
setup, and in recovery situations. A regular user, with some administrative privileges
is usually set up as a first step. To do this, follow the steps below:
1. In your Mumble client, ensure that you have a certificate for your user.
(A certificate is generated by Mumble by default, but you can create a new
one if you wish -- or use an existing S/MIME email certificate if you wish.)
2. Connect to your server with the user that you wish to grant administrative
privileges to. (Your username will be stored on the server when you register
yourself, so pick something you'd like to keep!)
3. Once connected, right click your user name in the server view and choose
'Register'. This will register your user to the server (this makes the
server remember you as a user -- but you still will not have administrative
privileges).
4. Once registered, you can disconnect from the server. Now it is time to
connect using the SuperUser account that the server created for you
when you launched it the first time.
Simply specify SuperUser as your username, and the password that Murmur
gave you as the password.
5. After connecting as the SuperUser, right click the 'Root'-channel and
choose Edit. In the Edit dialog, click the Groups tab.
In the Groups dropdown, choose the admin group.
Then, under Members three lists should appear, showing Members, Excluded
Members and Inherited Members. We're only interested in Members. Expand
the drop down below the member list and find the username of the user
you registered in step 3.
Click Add to add the user to the admin group.
6. Your user is now an administrator.

Additional Murmur Options
=========================
The above instructions use a very bare-bones approach to running Murmur.
Several other command line options are available. These are listed below:
murmur.x86 [-supw <password>] [-ini <inifile>] [-fg] [v]
-supw Set new password for the user SuperUser, which is hardcoded to
bypass ACLs. Keep this password safe. If you use this option,
Murmur will set the password in the database and then exit.
-ini Use an ini file other than murmur.ini, use this to run several
instances of Murmur from the same directory. Make sure each
instance is using a separate database. (Specified in the ini file.)
-fg Run in the foreground, logging to standard output.
-v More verbose logging.
