Depends on what exactly you want. Possibilities:

1. Some XMPP server that works with Sugar.

   Install ejabberd from distro packages and set up the shared roster
   groups [1]. This is what I did for my own personal server.

2. A server that mimics what most schools are going to have.

   Install XS-on-XO. I didn't get the non-XO variant to work (inside a
   VM), but XS-on-XO-1 worked fine the last time I tried it.

3. A replica of jabber.sugarlabs.org to debug problems with it.

   Ask Aleksey. AFAIK jabber.sl.o is running some patched version of
   Prosody.
