If your curious to see how we got here, take a look at the Jitsi forum. There's some information on how to get a basic setup running.
Since then a few FreeBSD users have stepped up to create really great installation guides. (if I missed your guide, feel free to send me a note to add it)
NOTE: Almost all of these guides use NGINX as the webserver.
I'll soon be creating a Devops style guide of my own, but using Apache instead. Additionally I'll also have a guide for an HA setup using HA proxy. Until thats done and tested here's the required Apache Vhost config to get it working:
