I tried the standard IRC client and simply redirected it. It worked, but this is running on a server and I don't want to stay online. I tried % nohup irc -c#myroom mynick thechatserver >>myroom.log But it when I suspend the task and try to run it in the back ground I get ioctl errors and it stops logging. Is there some other way? Is there another way I can log what's going on in my chat room without staying online? I am not one to ask a question without trying everything I know, and this is perhaps the second question I have asked in 3 years. I am thinking I am not the first person who has wanted to do this, perhaps there is a perl script somewhere?? I'm not on the list so if you have an answer please write me directly. I have set up a website/shopping using freebsd apache and mysql, I might be able to help someone if they have some questions that I can answer http://www.ryerose.net Thanks for you time David Stickney To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
