Anonymous chat servers
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
## Connect to anonymous IRC server
|
|
|
|
You can connect to IRC servers in I2P by using **Socks proxy**. By default, it listens at ``127.0.0.1:4447``
|
|
(look at [configuration docs](../user-guide/configuration.md) for details).
|
|
Configure your IRC client to use this Socks proxy and connect to I2P servers just like to any other servers.
|
|
|
|
*Alternatively*, you may want to create **client I2P tunnel** to specific server.
|
|
This way, i2pd will "bind" IRC server port on your computer and you will be able to connect to server without modifying any IRC client settings.
|
|
|
|
To connect to IRC server at *irc.ilita.i2p:6667*, add this to ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf:
|
|
|
|
[IRC2]
|
|
type = client
|
|
address = 127.0.0.1
|
|
port = 6669
|
|
destination = irc.ilita.i2p
|
|
destinationport = 6667
|
|
#keys = irc-client-key.dat
|
|
|
|
Restart i2pd, then connect to irc://127.0.0.1:6669 with your IRC client.
|
|
|
|
## Running anonymous IRC server
|
|
|
|
1) Run your IRC server software and find out which host:port it uses (for example, 127.0.0.1:5555).
|
|
|
|
For small private IRC servers you can use [miniircd](https://github.com/jrosdahl/miniircd), for large public networks [UnreadIRCd](https://www.unrealircd.org/).
|
|
|
|
2) Configure i2pd to create IRC server tunnel.
|
|
|
|
Simplest case, if your server does not support WebIRC, add this to ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[anon-chatserver]
|
|
type = irc
|
|
host = 127.0.0.1
|
|
port = 5555
|
|
keys = chatserver-key.dat
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And that is it.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, if your IRC server supports WebIRC, for example, UnreadIRCd, put this into UnrealIRCd config:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
webirc {
|
|
mask 127.*.*.*;
|
|
password your_password;
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Also change line:
|
|
|
|
modes-on-connect "+ixw";
|
|
|
|
to
|
|
|
|
modes-on-connect "+iw";
|
|
|
|
And this in ~/.i2pd/tunnels.conf:
|
|
|
|
[anon-chatserver]
|
|
type = irc
|
|
host = 127.0.0.1
|
|
port = 5555
|
|
keys = chatserver-key.dat
|
|
webircpassword = your_password
|
|
|
|
3) Restart i2pd.
|
|
|
|
4) Find b32 destination of your anonymous IRC server.
|
|
|
|
Go to webconsole -> [I2P tunnels page](http://127.0.0.1:7070/?page=i2p_tunnels). Look for Sever tunnels and you will see address like \<long random string\>.b32.i2p next to anon-chatserver.
|
|
|
|
Clients will use this address to connect to your server anonymously.
