In april 2020 Conversations [released a new version with support for end-to-end encrypted audio/video calls](https://github.com/iNPUTmice/Conversations/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#version-280), bringing that functionality to one of the most widely used XMPP clients. For A/V calls to work you need to enable server-side support. This guide will help you doing that.
We will first install and configure [Coturn](https://github.com/coturn/coturn). It is a libre STUN/TURN server that helps establish peer connections across firewalls for media streams such as calls. Then we will configure Prosody to talk to Coturn.

Like the other guides, this one assumes Debian stable running on the server, the fact that you will end up hosting a few of your friends and that you have some basic skills working on a linux command line.
