+-- Prosody Example Configuration File
+--
+-- Information on configuring Prosody can be found on our
+-- website at http://prosody.im/doc/configure
+--
+-- Tip: You can check that the syntax of this file is correct
+-- when you have finished by running: luac -p prosody.cfg.lua
+-- If there are any errors, it will let you know what and where
+-- they are, otherwise it will keep quiet.
+--
+-- The only thing left to do is rename this file to remove the .dist ending, and fill in the
+-- blanks. Good luck, and happy Jabbering!
+
+
+------ Void settings ------
+daemonize = false;
+pidfile = "/run/prosody/prosody.pid"
+
+---------- Server-wide settings ----------
+-- Settings in this section apply to the whole server and are the default settings
+-- for any virtual hosts
+
+-- This is a (by default, empty) list of accounts that are admins
+-- for the server. Note that you must create the accounts separately
+-- (see http://prosody.im/doc/creating_accounts for info)
+-- Example: admins = { "user1@example.com", "user2@example.net" }
+admins = { }
+
+-- Enable use of libevent for better performance under high load
+-- For more information see: http://prosody.im/doc/libevent
+--use_libevent = true;
+
+-- This is the list of modules Prosody will load on startup.
+-- It looks for mod_modulename.lua in the plugins folder, so make sure that exists too.
+-- Documentation on modules can be found at: http://prosody.im/doc/modules
+modules_enabled = {
+
+	-- Generally required
+		"roster"; -- Allow users to have a roster. Recommended ;)
+		"saslauth"; -- Authentication for clients and servers. Recommended if you want to log in.
+		"tls"; -- Add support for secure TLS on c2s/s2s connections
+		"dialback"; -- s2s dialback support
+		"disco"; -- Service discovery
+
+	-- Not essential, but recommended
+		"private"; -- Private XML storage (for room bookmarks, etc.)
+		"vcard"; -- Allow users to set vCards
+	
+	-- These are commented by default as they have a performance impact
+		--"privacy"; -- Support privacy lists
+		--"compression"; -- Stream compression
+
+	-- Nice to have
+		"version"; -- Replies to server version requests
+		"uptime"; -- Report how long server has been running
+		"time"; -- Let others know the time here on this server
+		"ping"; -- Replies to XMPP pings with pongs
+		"pep"; -- Enables users to publish their mood, activity, playing music and more
+		"register"; -- Allow users to register on this server using a client and change passwords
+
+	-- Admin interfaces
+		"admin_adhoc"; -- Allows administration via an XMPP client that supports ad-hoc commands
+		--"admin_telnet"; -- Opens telnet console interface on localhost port 5582
+	
+	-- HTTP modules
+		--"bosh"; -- Enable BOSH clients, aka "Jabber over HTTP"
+		--"http_files"; -- Serve static files from a directory over HTTP
+
+	-- Other specific functionality
+		"posix"; -- POSIX functionality, sends server to background, enables syslog, etc. (Keep enabled for Void.)
+		--"groups"; -- Shared roster support
+		--"announce"; -- Send announcement to all online users
+		--"welcome"; -- Welcome users who register accounts
+		--"watchregistrations"; -- Alert admins of registrations
+		--"motd"; -- Send a message to users when they log in
+		--"legacyauth"; -- Legacy authentication. Only used by some old clients and bots.
+};
+
+-- These modules are auto-loaded, but should you want
+-- to disable them then uncomment them here:
+modules_disabled = {
+	-- "offline"; -- Store offline messages
+	-- "c2s"; -- Handle client connections
+	-- "s2s"; -- Handle server-to-server connections
+};
+
+-- Disable account creation by default, for security
+-- For more information see http://prosody.im/doc/creating_accounts
+allow_registration = false;
+
+-- These are the SSL/TLS-related settings. If you don't want
+-- to use SSL/TLS, you may comment or remove this
+ssl = {
+	key = "certs/localhost.key";
+	certificate = "certs/localhost.crt";
+}
+
+-- Force clients to use encrypted connections? This option will
+-- prevent clients from authenticating unless they are using encryption.
+
+c2s_require_encryption = false
+
+-- Force certificate authentication for server-to-server connections?
+-- This provides ideal security, but requires servers you communicate
+-- with to support encryption AND present valid, trusted certificates.
+-- NOTE: Your version of LuaSec must support certificate verification!
+-- For more information see http://prosody.im/doc/s2s#security
+
+s2s_secure_auth = false
+
+-- Many servers don't support encryption or have invalid or self-signed
+-- certificates. You can list domains here that will not be required to
+-- authenticate using certificates. They will be authenticated using DNS.
+
+--s2s_insecure_domains = { "gmail.com" }
+
+-- Even if you leave s2s_secure_auth disabled, you can still require valid
+-- certificates for some domains by specifying a list here.
+
+--s2s_secure_domains = { "jabber.org" }
+
+-- Select the authentication backend to use. The 'internal' providers
+-- use Prosody's configured data storage to store the authentication data.
+-- To allow Prosody to offer secure authentication mechanisms to clients, the
+-- default provider stores passwords in plaintext. If you do not trust your
+-- server please see http://prosody.im/doc/modules/mod_auth_internal_hashed
+-- for information about using the hashed backend.
+
+authentication = "internal_plain"
+
+-- Select the storage backend to use. By default Prosody uses flat files
+-- in its configured data directory, but it also supports more backends
+-- through modules. An "sql" backend is included by default, but requires
+-- additional dependencies. See http://prosody.im/doc/storage for more info.
+
+--storage = "sql" -- Default is "internal"
+
+-- For the "sql" backend, you can uncomment *one* of the below to configure:
+--sql = { driver = "SQLite3", database = "prosody.sqlite" } -- Default. 'database' is the filename.
+--sql = { driver = "MySQL", database = "prosody", username = "prosody", password = "secret", host = "localhost" }
+--sql = { driver = "PostgreSQL", database = "prosody", username = "prosody", password = "secret", host = "localhost" }
+
+-- Logging configuration
+-- For advanced logging see http://prosody.im/doc/logging
+log = {
+	info = "/var/log/prosody/prosody.log"; -- Change 'info' to 'debug' for verbose logging
+	error = "/var/log/prosody/prosody.err";
+	-- "*syslog"; -- Uncomment this for logging to syslog
+	-- "*console"; -- Log to the console, useful for debugging with daemonize=false
+}
+
+----------- Virtual hosts -----------
+-- You need to add a VirtualHost entry for each domain you wish Prosody to serve.
+-- Settings under each VirtualHost entry apply *only* to that host.
+
+VirtualHost "localhost"
+
+VirtualHost "example.com"
+	enabled = false -- Remove this line to enable this host
+
+	-- Assign this host a certificate for TLS, otherwise it would use the one
+	-- set in the global section (if any).
+	-- Note that old-style SSL on port 5223 only supports one certificate, and will always
+	-- use the global one.
+	ssl = {
+		key = "certs/example.com.key";
+		certificate = "certs/example.com.crt";
+	}
+
+------ Components ------
+-- You can specify components to add hosts that provide special services,
+-- like multi-user conferences, and transports.
+-- For more information on components, see http://prosody.im/doc/components
+
+---Set up a MUC (multi-user chat) room server on conference.example.com:
+--Component "conference.example.com" "muc"
+
+-- Set up a SOCKS5 bytestream proxy for server-proxied file transfers:
+--Component "proxy.example.com" "proxy65"
+
+---Set up an external component (default component port is 5347)
+--
+-- External components allow adding various services, such as gateways/
+-- transports to other networks like ICQ, MSN and Yahoo. For more info
+-- see: http://prosody.im/doc/components#adding_an_external_component
+--
+--Component "gateway.example.com"
+--	component_secret = "password"
