Cc: hackers@freebsd.org Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hello, Starting there, this becomes an IRC setup question :-) There is a file that your IRC server needs: ircd.conf This file has to be setup correctly and for your server to be able to talk the outside world, you have to set a link with a nearby IRC server (here nearby == an IRC server that is already connected to the outside world and that is close to you netwise.). For this I suggest that you send mail to operlist@kei.com and inquiry about who could provide you with such a link. For the number of connections your server can serve, check the doc for I and Y lines that you have to put in your ircd.conf file. Regards, Yves Lepage
