I installed a IRC server on one of my Linux dedicated. But the config is to confusing and don't know how to link it to my domain. The Server I came across is ngIRCd http://ngircd.barton.de/ I dont even know if its the best but the install was easy. I just dont know what to do from here. Like what settings to attach the server to my domain (Which has already been linked to the linux box it self from DNS settings). Also how will I know if its running and stuff? Im completely new to this kind of server and any help would be great! Thanks
You can start the server using /etc/init.d/ngircd start and stop it with /etc/init.d/ngircd stop check if it running with ps ax | grep ngircd And sure - if it server - use client to connect it
Awesome thnx! Though I still cant find out how to properly link my domain to the server Any more help would be much appreciated!
