  I'm sure you can... but I think one of the big hiccups is that you need DNS to point to your server if you want it to be externally available. I've used XMPP servers for intra-organization chatservers before though, and it worked great!

  >Can you run a Prosody server on a rasPI? Sure. >Do you need a static IP? Well you need a domain name to identify your server. It's the same thing as with email. So however you can do that...

  > Can you run a Prosody server on a rasPI? Easily. > Do you need a static IP? No, but you need access to a domain record to add the required entries for XMPP, and update them if your IP changes. One can do this for free (once you have a domain that points at their DNS records) with a provider like Digitalocean and their API to update the domains.
