We are looking to expand the network. It is completely free. If you are waiting for your EFNet C/N or you want an replacement for EFNet as we did, simply write and we can issue a C/N to BSDNet. The only restriction is that we don't allow any SysV type servers. That shouldn't be a problem, you're already subscribed to freebsd-isp and know what works and what doesn't. I look forward to hearing from FreeBSD based ISPs and ISPs that enjoy their FreeBSD system and want an irc server connection to a BSD oriented irc network. If you want to try it out to see which server is closest to you, grab the ircii port or package and /server irc.tioga.com, then /join #freebsd, you'll find us there. ======================================================================== Thomas J Balfe tbalfe@tioga.com President http://www.tioga.com/ Tioga Communications, Inc 814-867-4770 ======================================================================== "Humanity has been compared...to a sleeper who handles matches in his sleep and wakes to find himself in flames." - H.G.
