BIP uses the password field to encode three fields separated by a colon:
 +
 
 +
* USERNAME: your bip username (same of your shell account)
 +
* PASSWORD: the password you used with bipmkpw
 +
* NETWORK: the identifier of the IRC network to connect to (for example, "freenode").
 +
 
 +
If you have multiple IRC networks, create multiple server entries in your IRC client,
 +
each one with a different value for NETWORK.
 +
 
 +
This configuration is known to work with [http://xchat.org/ XChat] and [http://konversation.kde.org/ Konversation].
