If so how do u enable it | or dont u need to enable it or do u need to install it? Cuse ive | installed xchat from the freebsd cd.Im running a proxy and ive set it | up but it doesnt want to work. my proxy server is correct cause i can | connect through it with mirc for windows.Help please. | | regards | ian I think this has nothing to with FreeBSD. Its a xchat prob. You should set the proxy setting of xchat. Check out the Settings->Preferences->Network->Network Setup. xchat supports HTTP, SOCKS4, SOCKS5 and Wingate proxy.
