Does Carlow IT have its own irc channel, cos we should one set up. As far as i know its not that hard. Or is there any point??

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 24-02-2003 02:57PM

irc.quakenet.org
we can create a channel there, or we can just talk in #boards.ie

*shrug*

clansman · 24-02-2003 03:05PM

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 24-02-2003 03:10PM

is there a point since we can get it going from the college?

For those who don't know... mIRC supports HTTP proxies, and works just fine through the it carlow proxy. In mIRC options, set it to use a http proxy: proxy.itcarlow.ie port 8080 with no authentication.

Damn it! i hate being a dumbass!

Snowball · 25-02-2003 11:53AM

my last point was suposed to say "can't" but never mind since Steven showed me up

If anyone knows how to configure Http tunnel please come to Compsoc tomorrow plz

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 25-02-2003 11:55AM

it ain't difficult to sort out, just mess about with it

Stephen · 25-02-2003 12:00PM

As I said, you don't need HTTP tunnel for IRC, just use mirc's built in http proxy support.

Snowball · 25-02-2003 12:02PM

its not for mirc, there are other programs. bloody nerds

Redrocket · 25-02-2003 01:42PM

you dont even need proxy.itcarlow.ie
"proxy" will work on it's own. handy incase you have to type proxy.itcarlow.ie 10 times a day.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 25-02-2003 01:44PM

indeed
it's a real pity that putty on my g: drive won't save my ****ing settings, it's a **** having to type in the addy every time I want to ssh out.

Stephen · 25-02-2003 01:55PM

Putty seems to like to save its settings in the root of the C drive. The little bitch.

Redrocket · 25-02-2003 01:56PM

thats exactly what i was thinking when i posted that about "proxy", putty the little b*tch
