You'll want to go to www.efnet.org and use their server list. The popular ones are irc.ef.net, irc.lightning.net, and irc.plur.net. you might want to see if you can get on efnet.telstra.net.au. Once you're connected, #FreeBSD is the generic chat channel, usually way WAY off topic. #FreeBSDHelp is where people asking questions in #FreeBSD get kicked to. #BSDCode is the secret channel you go to if you actaully want to talk code. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
