Debian On-line Real Time Help Using IRC

On-line Real Time Help Using IRC

IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is a way to chat with people from all over the world in real time. IRC channels dedicated to Debian can be found on OFTC.

To connect, you need an IRC client. Some of the most popular clients are XChat, BitchX, ircII, irssi, epic4 and KSirc, all of which have been packaged for Debian. Once you have the client installed, you need to tell it to connect to the server. In most clients, you can do that by typing:

/server irc.debian.org

Once you are connected, join channel #debian by typing

/join #debian
