You can install an IRC server of your own and use it as a replacement of the chat server you were using in MSN. Links to information on the software used in a few of the largest IRC networksk today are listed below: + Undernet uses `ircu' < http://coder-com.undernet.org/ > + DALnet uses `bahamut' < http://bahamut.dal.net > + EFnet uses `hybrid' < http://www.efnet.org/archive/servers/hybrid/ > Grab yourself the copy and documentation given with one of these servers, read the documentation, install the program, and you're ready to go :) You can also find lots of useful links and documents on setting up an IRC server in the documentation pages of the networks I referred to above: http://www.user-com.undernet.org/documents/ http://help.dal.net/docs/ http://www.efnet.org/docs.html Ciao :) -giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
