People uaing this application will remain connected to the IRC server and will be able to see what they missed while they were away.
You connect to IRC through dircproxy, and it keeps you connected to the server, even after you detach your client from it. While you're detached, it logs channel and private messages as well as important events, and when you reattach it'll let you know what you missed.
Here are some key features of "dircproxy":
· Runs on console, as a daemon or from inetd.
· Able to proxy many simultaneous users and IRC connections.
· Uses IRC server passwords to authenticate.
· Remains connected to server when you detach. To reattach you just use the IRC server password again, no special commands!
· Completely non-blocking throughout.
· Can connect to servers that also require a password.
· Can have a list of servers on the same network to connect to, it will cycle this list.
· Throttles data sent to server to ensure you are never flooded off.
· Can check servers to make sure they don't become "stoned".
· Reconnects to servers if connection is dropped.
· Can automatically join channels for you on first attach.
· Rejoins channels if you are kicked off.
· Can leave channels when you detach and rejoin when you come back.
· Can take measures to ensure you don't appear "idle" on IRC.
· Host and password based security.
· Easy to configure and get running.
