Mumble

If you're looking for encrypted voice chat, Mumble might be a solution. It features high-quality, low latency Voice over IP (VoIP) for communities up to 100 users. There's no public service on my behalf. Take a look at the official public serverlist.

Basic setup

At the server-side you need to install and setup murmur according to mumble's wiki article and the Mumble — UberLab 7 documentation.

Disable logging

Mumble's server software murmur logs per-server entries to an internal database and show IP addresses in user status window for privileged users by default. For privacy these settings must be disabled by specifying:

logdays=-1
obfuscate=true

in configuration file murmur.ini.

Prevent verbosity

By default, murmur is quite verbose about service quality (user counts, bandwidth) and announcements via bonjour as well as technical server details about OS and software version. Edit the following configuration values to change this behaviour:

allowping=false
bonjour=false
sendversion=false
