BitlBee is an IRC instant messaging gateway licensed under the terms of the
|
|
GPL. It communicates with the end user via the IRC protocol whilst interacting
|
|
with popular chat networks such as AIM, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, and Jabber. The user's
|
|
buddies appear as normal IRC users in a channel, and conversations use the
|
|
private message facility of IRC.
|
|
|
|
After the installation, you need to modify your /etc/inetd.conf so bitlbee wil
|
|
be started when /etc/rc.d/rc.inetd is called on bootup. Add the line below to
|
|
your /etc/inetd.conf file:
|
|
6667 stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/sbin/bitlbee
|
|
|
|
Restart inetd (/etc/rc.d/rc.inetd restart). All that is left to do now is
|
|
connect your irc client to the localhost.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The default "bot"/bitlbee daemon is called 'root'. This is not the root
|
|
user on your system. You can easily change it. Register and identify yourself
|
|
first, and then:
|
|
|
|
rename root BitlBot
|
|
(or whatever you want)
