+## Introduction
+After discovering how amazing wireguard vpn is on Android, I decided to move
+my quasselcore server off of Ramnode, where I was securing it with LetsEncrypt
+Certs, and instead run it on a double-natted kvm host on my home server
+where I could give it more ram and cpu, and back up the entire vm image to my backup-backup server
+using syncoid and zfs snapshots.
+
+But there are a few little niggles, so I am writing it down.
+
+## Install Packages
+
+```shell
+apt install postgresql postgresql-contrib quasselcore libqt5sql5-psql apparmor-utils
+```
+
+### stop quasselcore
+```shell
+systemctl stop quasselcore
+```
+### allow quasselcore in apparmor
+so quasselcore user can read it's own configuration directory
+```shell
+aa-complain /usr/bin/quasselcore
+systemctl restart apparmor
+```
+### postgresql socket connection
+If you want to use Postgresql socket connection because
+why wouldn't you, allow md5 authentication in `pg_hba.conf`
+```conf
+# /etc/postgresql/13/main/pg_hba.conf
+local   quassel         quassel                                 md5
+```
+```shell
+systemctl restart postgresql
+```
+
+## Copy the Postgresql Database
+### dump database on old/previous server
+```shell
+pg_dump -d quassel -f quasseldb.sql
+```
+### create database on new server
+```psql
+postgres# CREATE USER quassel;
+postgres# \password quassel
+postgres# CREATE DATABASE quassel WITH OWNER quassel;
+```
+### import database on new server
+```shell
+psql -d quassel -f quasseldb.sql
+```
+
+## Configure QuasselCore
+```shell
+sudo quasselcore --configdir=/var/lib/quassel --select-backend=Postgresql
+```
+When prompted for postgresql host, you can use `/var/run/postgresql` if
+you want to use unix-socket.
+
+Before starting quasselcore, make sure that all the files in `/var/lib/quassel`
+are owned by quasselcore:quassel, and _they might not be_.
+
+For other `quasselcore` options you can type `quasselcore -h`, but I chose to
+use ufw to restrict the client port to the wireguard interface.
+```shell
+ufw allow in on wg1 to any port 4242
+```
+
+## Connect
+To connect to your new `quasselcore`, open quassel client or quasseldroid
+and simply change the host name.
