Post by **ZioN** » Sun Jan 15, 2023 7:30 pm

Hello,
Bellow you can find all the steps needed to be done in order to build the UnderNet IRCU using a linux server.
Please keep in mind that the IP Address of the machine used for this HOWTO is 192.168.1.133 and it should be changed with the IP address of the machine where you want to have IRCU installed.
OK, now let`s proceed....

1. We need to make sure that the server is update - to - date:

apt update

apt upgrade

apt install build-essential

apt install wget git libssl-dev openssl bison libreadline-dev zlib1g-dev automake make flex mlocate byacc

2. Now we are ready to get and install ircu.

adduser ircd

su - ircd

git clone https://github.com/UndernetIRC/ircu2

cd ircu2/

./configure --prefix=/home/ircd/ircd --with-maxcon=1024

gmake

gmake install

cd

cd ircd/lib

cp example.conf ircd.conf

## edit ircd.conf with your network settings.
## To test ircd.conf file for errors type:

/home/ircd/ircd/bin/ircd -k 9

## if message is: "Configuration file ircd.conf checked okay." you can proceed with starting ircd server, using:

/home/ircd/ircd/bin/ircd

This is all ! Now you have an IRCU Server Running !
