Access

To connect you need and IRC client, as the bouncer acts like an IRC server. See the here for examples of usable softwares.

The bouncer is able to connect to multiple networks, but so as not to mix connections (which may have users and channels of the same name, creating a conflict), you need to connect to the bouncer multiple times, one for each network.

You need to configure these parameters for each connection:

  • host: irc-bouncer.duckcorp.org
  • port: 7778
  • password: <user>:<user-password>:<connection>
  • activate SSL/TLS

<user> is your username, <user-password> your password, and <connection> the name of the network you want to connect to (see the list of available networks below).

Available Networks

These are the available networks you may access, depending on your configuration:

  • milkypond (secured)
  • minbif (IRC to IM gateway, secured)
  • debianjp
  • freenode (secured)
  • oftc (secured)
