  1. This might be outdated:

    If you have apache running, you can install the mumble-server-web package to get web-accessible scripts.

Is it? If yes we can remove that.

  1. Does the mumble-server installed via your PPA also autostart on system-start? In this case we could add a note for this in the Readme.

In the debian file (README.debian) it reads:

To enable or disable the mumble-server daemon under sysvinit, this now needs
to be done via update-rc.d at the command line as root or via sudo:

  update-rc.d mumble-server [disable|enable]

This has been changed compared to upstream because disabling daemons via an
environment variable in /etc/default/<package> causes problems for init
systems (e.g. systemd) so it has been deprecated by Debian Policy §9.3.3.1
since Policy version 4.1.3.

To stop and disable mumble-server with systemd:

  systemctl stop    mumble-server
  systemctl disable mumble-server
  systemctl mask    mumble-server

To re-enable and start mumble-server with systemd:

  systemctl unmask  mumble-server
  systemctl enable  mumble-server
  systemctl start   mumble-server
  1. I would change this:

    Murmur's root user is called SuperUser. To set the password for superuser, simply dpkg-reconfigure mumble-server.

Edits: Murmur's Admin user and simply run: and add You can add another user to the admin group via ACL. (maybe also add a link to the wiki (when its rewritten and updated :stuck_out_tongue: ).

  1. silent concering messages

What is concering? I could not find a meaning to this and even if it exists it might be rewritten:

The mumble-server init script does not show messages in console on
startup/shutdown by default; if you wish to see start/stop messages to the
console on upgrades, uncomment "VERBOSE=yes" in /etc/default/rcS.

(if thats even the correct meaning)

I can make a pull request for this, if you approve.
