<h1>XMPP Chat Server Setup (Clearnet + Onion + OMEMO E2EE)</h1>
<p>In this tutorial, we're going to check out how to setup a XMPP chat server, that is accessible over Tor, as a hidden service, using Prosody. We'll also cover how to have a Clearnet XMPP server, and how to have OMEMO End to End encryption using the Gajim XMPP client.</p>

<h2><b>XMPP Onion Server Setup </b></h2>
<p>Before starting, check out <a href="../torwebsite/index.html">this</a> tutorial on how to create your first hidden service.</p>
<pre><code class="nim">

</code></pre>
<p>Then, we make sure that the tor hidden service includes the XMPP ports:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">

<p>Here, my hidden service is aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion, let's check that the mod_onions module is installed and configure the prosody.cfg.lua file:</p>

<p>all good now, now let's connect to it using pidgin:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
[ mainpc ] [ /dev/pts/9 ] [~/Nextcloud/blog]
→ apt install pidgin -y
[ mainpc ] [ /dev/pts/9 ] [~/Nextcloud/blog]
→ pidgin
</code></pre>
<p>Then, create your account on the XMPP server:</p>

<img src="3.png" class="imgRz">
<img src="4.png" class="imgRz">
<img src="6.png" class="imgRz">
<img src="5.png" class="imgRz">
<p>Next, we can start chatting with Alice, who is another user on that XMPP server like so:</p>
<img src="7.png" class="imgRz">
<p>Then from Alice's XMPP client, we accept nihilist's buddy request:</p>

<h2><b>Optional XMPP server options:</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>if you want to enable message archiving, enable the "mam" module by uncommenting it:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
root@ANON-home:~# vim /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
root@ANON-home:~# cat /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
[...]
modules_enabled = {
"mam"; -- Store recent messages to allow multi-device synchronization
}
[...]
</code></pre>
<p>and then you can mention the expiration time of messages like so:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
root@ANON-home:~# vim /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
root@ANON-home:~# cat /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
archive_expires_after = "1w" -- remove archived messages after 1 week
</code></pre>
<p>you can choose to limit the bandwidth usage of your server too, using the mod_limits module:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
root@ANON-home:~# vim /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
root@ANON-home:~# cat /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
limits = {
c2s = {
rate = "10kb/s";
}
s2sin = {
rate = "30kb/s";
}
}
</code></pre>
<p>You can also enable archiving on the multi-user chats like so :</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
root@ANON-home:~# vim /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
root@ANON-home:~# cat /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
Component "conference.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion" "muc"
modules_enabled = { "onions", "muc_mam" };
onions_only = true;
</code></pre>
<p>And just like in mod_mam, you can set the expiration time of the messages in MUCs:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
root@ANON-home:~# vim /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
root@ANON-home:~# cat /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
Component "conference.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion" "muc"
modules_enabled = { "onions", "muc_mam" };
onions_only = true;
muc_log_expires_after = "1w"
</code></pre>
<p>Then, you can also enable file archiving using mod_http_file_share:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
root@ANON-home:~# vim /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
root@ANON-home:~# cat /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
Component "upload.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion" "http_file_share"
modules_enabled = { "onions" };
onions_only = true;
http_file_share_daily_quota = 100*1024*1024; -- 100 MiB
http_file_share_after = 7*86400; -- One week in seconds
http_file_share_size_limit = 10*1024*1024 -- 10 Mib
</code></pre>
<p>Then, as you're going to have a multi user chat, you'll most likely need the mod_muc_moderation module:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
root@ANON-home:~# vim /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
root@ANON-home:~# cat /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
Component "conference.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion" "muc"
modules_enabled = { "onions", "muc_mam", "muc_moderation" };
onions_only = true;
muc_log_expires_after = "1w"

<h2><b>XMPP Clearnet Server Setup</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>First edit prosody.cfg.lua like so :</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
[ Datura ] [ /dev/pts/3 ] [~]
→ vim /etc/prosody/prosody.cfg.lua
[...]
VirtualHost "nowhere.moe"
ssl = {
certificate = "/etc/ssl/nowhere.moe/fullchain.cer";
key = "/etc/ssl/nowhere.moe/nowhere.moe.key";
}
VirtualHost "nowherejezfoltodf4jiyl6r56jnzintap5vyjlia7fkirfsnfizflqd.onion"
[...]
</code></pre>
<p>Then copy the existing acme.sh certificates for nowhere.moe into another non-root directory, otherwise prosody wont be able to read them:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
[ Datura ] [ /dev/pts/4 ] [/etc/ssl/nowhere.moe]
→ mkdir -p /etc/ssl/nowhere.moe/
[ Datura ] [ /dev/pts/4 ] [/etc/ssl/nowhere.moe]
→ cp -r /root/.acme.sh/nowhere.moe/* /etc/ssl/nowhere.moe
[ Datura ] [ /dev/pts/4 ] [/etc/ssl/nowhere.moe]
→ sudo setfacl -R -m u:prosody:rx /etc/ssl/nowhere.moe/
[ Datura ] [ /dev/pts/4 ] [/etc/ssl/nowhere.moe]
→ sudo -u prosody cat /etc/ssl/nowhere.moe/nowhere.moe.cer

-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</code></pre>
<p>to copy it once a day to the correct folder, you can do it via cronjob:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
[ Datura ] [ /dev/pts/7 ] [~]
→ crontab -e
0 0 * * * cp -r /root/.acme.sh/nowhere.moe/* /etc/ssl/nowhere.moe ; setfacl -R -m u:prosody:rx /root/.acme.sh/nowhere.moe ; systemctl restart prosody
</code></pre>
<p>Then, don't forget to create the clearnet user:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
[ Datura ] [ /dev/pts/7 ] [~]
→ prosodyctl adduser usertest usertestpwd
[ Datura ] [ /dev/pts/7 ] [~]
→ prosodyctl passwd usertest@nowhere.moe
</code></pre>
<p>Then you can just connect to the XMPP server over clearnet aswell, but one thing to note is that pidgin is limited when it comes to encrypting chats, so let's use Gajim instead as it comes with OMEMO encryption out of the box:</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
user@laptop: apt install gajim -y
</pre></code>
