You need to download and configure one of the IRC daemons, (Servers) Such like hybird, df, bahamut. So you can run an IRC Server. Jum Wrote, >Nicknames and rooms should able to be registered. You should Install IRC services it will do the job. Jim Wrote, >In addition, how do I set up a subdomain pointing to it? (For example, >irc.ourdomain.com). You have to configure your DNS, which i guess controlled by the ISP which is hosting your Server, in this case the ISP should do it for you. Jim Wrote, >Are there any suggestions? Thanks! You need to modify and recompile your kernel for NMBCLUSTERS. you need to pumb that. to be stable with your ulimit -a "open file result" output. This is a must to make your server hold the number of users you need it to hold, and according to your bandwidth usage. Please check www.ircdhelp.org i guess there is good info there. I belevie also this is not the correct list to send for.... ask around :) Have fun, and good luck. Marwan Sultan.
