Now that you have created the droplet, let’s attempt to connect using SSH. Copy and paste SSH public key you created/already had(alternatively you can add one later, it’s covered in step 6).Choose datacenter region closest to you.Choose droplet specs - the first basic option will do for a Mumble server (1GB mem/1vCPU).Choose operating system - here we have chosen Ubuntu 16.04.The following is what will need to be changed/selected. You will then be taken to a basic configuration page for a new droplet. To create the droplet, simply go to the Create dropdown menu on the top right of your Digital Ocean account and select droplet. Next you will be asked for a passphrase, whether you choose to use this is up to you, however I would suggest doing so. Hit enter to use the standard name and location for your keys. NOTE: If you already have SSH keys setup you can skip this step. You will also need to use the following software: a browser, a terminal, SSH, a text editor, Mumble-Server and the Mumble client. In order to follow this, you will need a Digital Ocean account and a domain you have purchased from your registrar of choice. Usually I run a Mumble server on a Raspberry Pi 2 in my homelab, however I recently set it up on Digital Ocean and thought I would document the process as I did not find any posts detailing the entire procedure. Although the majority of people have moved to proprietary options such as Discord, I prefer to use Mumble as it is the better option for privacy and freedom. The following was created on a Ubuntu 16.04 droplet but should be very similar if not the same on other distributions. This post will cover the complete process of setting up a Mumble server utilising Digital Ocean as a VPS provider and using a custom domain bought through a domain registrar.
