You can use EFNet/dalnet's ircd, check in /usr/ports/irc or packages/irc.
if you dont need nick-registrations ircu will probaly work better, you can
install GNUWorld with web-interface and get "Undernet's X".

If you host the domain yourself(DNS) and using BIND you can add to zone-file:
irc IN A your.ip.address
or
irc IN CNAME your.hostname.
If you dont host it yourself, you need to do it where you have registered
the domain. Most have a web-interface to do it.

Jim Wrote,

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,

 You should Install IRC services it will do the job.

Jim Wrote,

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.

IRC server recommendations?

2003-08-10 Thread Jim Krenz
Hello all,

We have a dedicated server that is running FreeBSD 4.8.

We need to run an IRC server off of it. File sharing needs to be turned
off. Nicknames and rooms should able to be registered.

In addition, how do I set up a subdomain pointing to it? (For example,
irc.ourdomain.com).

Are there any suggestions? Thanks!

-Best,

Jim
