"Prosody is a modern XMPP communication server (aka Jabber). It aims to be easy to set up and configure, and efficient with system resources. Additionally, for developers it aims to be easy to extend and give a flexible system on which to rapidly develop added functionality, or prototype new protocols."
Installation
These instructions are for SME Server 9.0 64-bit only.
Prosody (v0.9.12-1) is available from the epel repository, so you have to enable the epel repository. After enabling the epel repository, prosody can be installed with:
yum install prosody lua-ldap lua-event --enablerepo=epel
Configuration
Adding service and open ports
To automatically start Prosody at boot and configure the ports:
ln -s /etc/rc.d/init.d/e-smith-service /etc/rc7.d/S99prosody config set prosody service config setprop prosody status enabled config setprop prosody access private config setprop prosody TCPPort 5222 config setprop prosody UDPPort 5222
You can toggle the access property to enable public/private access.
Then to apply the new service:
signal-event remoteaccess-update
Configuration file
Prosody's configuration file is located at:
/etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
The basic settings you have to change to run your prosody server on your domain (replace "example.com" with "yourdomain.com"):

allow_registration = true
VirtualHost "localhost"
VirtualHost "yourdomain.com"
enabled = true
You can now start prosody by entering:
