IRC Server Setup and Configuration HowTo

2006-10-23 Thread Tito Mari Francis EscaƱo

Good day!

In our office we use irc-hybrid on CentOS4.4 as IRC server. I plan to
use OpenBSD 3.9 as my test IRC server with the provided irc-2.10.3p1
package.

Can anybody on the list provide me with pointers to howto's how to
configure this IRC server in OpenBSD? You're help would be very much
appreciated.

Thank you very much.

I setup my OpenBSD machine as a standalone irc server as well as a bitlbee 
gateway. I think bitlbee has trampled all over my irc setup. :-)

But it was very simple to do since right now I care two hoots about security. 

The config file is attached. It just works but I am damn sure there are plenty 
of gaping security holes in it.

Hope this helps.

The P: lines tell you which all lines ircd listens for irc connections.

Good luck!

Well, kind of good news is I ported ircd-hybric and hybserv2 a while ago.
Based on the freebsd ports of the same:
