Introduction

This module provides a console over XMPP. All the commands of the

Only the Prosody admins (see the *admins* list in the Prosody
configuration file) can use this console.
Installation
============
Copy the mod\_admin\_message directory into a directory Prosody will
check for plugins (cf. [Installing
modules](http://prosody.im/doc/installing_modules)) and set up a
component:
Component "console@example.com" "admin_message"
"console@example.com" is the identifier of the XMPP console.
