1. backup (bacula) for buddy lists in /var/lib/prosody 2. installing the prosody-modules package from jessie-backports and verify that /usr/lib/prosody/modules/mod_auth_ha1.lua is working (the version of mod_auth_ha1.lua that we developed and tested at DebConf15 is in ~pocock/prosody-mod/mod_auth_ha1.lua) 3. ensuring the text file with password hashes from LDAP is automatically updated when something changes in LDAP and then a HUP signal is sent to Prosody. This is very similar to what has already been scripted to provide the password hashes to the TURN server, reTurn.
