There is a complete Tutorial for everything. Basiclly this ircd has been created to serve DALnet IRC network but no harm and its perfect if you run it as a standalone network. Please check: http://bahamut.dal.net/ About controling number of users, connections, ports, etc usually its made from the ircd configuration it self. and small configuration to the box it self "if needed". Also you could search in google for "irc service" to download and connect. Maybe you would check http://board.ircd.cc/ for links and recruitment Marwan Sultan.
