It's what I run on my network currently, and it's been great stability wise. It has some extra features such as spamfilters, halfop status, and other bells and whistles. There are a few features when dealing with multiple servers that I personally wish it had, but I don't know of any other one that has 100% of everything I need so it's probably the best choice for me now. Another nice one is FreeNode's Hyperion. It has a vary different config file syntax than Unreal (maybe a bit more difficult) but it's also a nice IRCD. It's not in ports, but the site is here: http://freenode.net/hyperion.shtml I'd say try a few and see which ones you like best. Another one to try might be IRCu, although I have not played with that one in a couple years. If you need services, I like Anope (it's in ports). -Mark -- GnuPG Public Key: http://www.mkproductions.org/mk_pubkey.asc Internet Radio: Party107 (Trance/Electronic) - http://www.party107.com Rock 101.9 The Edge (Rock) - http://www.rock1019.net IRC: MIXXnet IRC Network - irc.mixxnet.net (Nick: MIXX941) --------------010209020101000903000508 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Disposition: inline; filename="signature.asc" LS0tLS1CRUdJTiBQR1AgU0lHTkFUVVJFLS0tLS0KVmVyc2lvbjogR251UEcgdjEuNC4yIChG cmVlQlNEKQoKaUQ4REJRRkRqUHFIbEgyeWJjbWo3SThSQW93VEFKMGYxNzErbnh0VDlKWTRn ZzkveXRhblZRSE5Ld0NncC9yUwpaVldqYmIrTzMzZ241N0kvbDM2Vjg1Zz0KPUlXUkkKLS0t LS1FTkQgUEdQIFNJR05BVFVSRS0tLS0tCgo= --------------010209020101000903000508-- --------------enig5A579D3F2B2300C6B2FBECE0 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFDjPqQlH2ybcmj7I8RAu2WAJ9FOoYS/eFtj3dfN8IknPDhPW2PLQCfVppW 8e2TeLXquScfJgaFUgt7euY= =kRwW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig5A579D3F2B2300C6B2FBECE0--
