4.Where can I get IRCD?
1.ftp://ftp.irc.org/irc/server
2.ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/unix/irc/server
3.ftp://coombs.anu.edu.au/pub/irc
4.ftp://ftp.ircnet.org/pub/irc/servers/
Redhat might put it in RPM format, but I doubt it - there are too many
compile time options you need to specify before compiling the server for
an individual machine.
You're better off grabbing the source, RTFM _LOTS_, and compiling it
yourself.
