Use TLS and keep certificate validation enabled. `irc.newnet.net` is a network
|
|
|
|
|
name that can direct clients to different servers; it is not proof that the
|
|
|
|
|
IRCd runs on the shell host.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For a new community, put your own network/channel choice in the member README,
|
|
|
|
|
MOTD, and client defaults. Check the network's connection and registration
|
|
|
|
|
policy before making hundreds of accounts connect from one host. Do not ship
|
|
|
|
|
member passwords or a privileged bot credential in the skeleton.

|
See [IRC operations](ircserver.md) for clients, ident, ZNC, and separate network
|
|
|
|
|
hosting. Endpoint details should be rechecked when the operator changes the
|
|
|
|
|
network or connection policy.
