We have an IRC proxy for users running on Machine:sunjammer. For more information, see the BIP home page].
Requesting a proxy
This service is only available to trusted developers with a Sysadmin/Shell_account_request shell account.
Setup a password with bipmkpw on sunjammer and send the
resulting hash to the sysadmin contact along
with:
- Your IRC nickname
- Optionally, a list of channels to connect to
- Optionally, your NickServ password so the proxy can automatically login as you when the server boots
Since you'll be connecting from one of our public IPs, we'll provide your actual login name and real name to the IRC network.
Of course, you can have other servers besides FreeNode. Let us know which ones you require.
Configuring your IRC client
IRC clients should be configured as follows:
Hostname: shell.sugarlabs.org Port: 7778 Use SSL: yes Accept invalid SSL certificates: yes Password: USERNAME:PASSWORD:freenode
This configuration is known to work with XChat.
