The Demon IRC server has not been wonderfully stable recently so I
moved it to a new home. The name is still the same, irc.demon.co.uk.
This is *currently* a CNAME for dismayl.demon.co.uk but as always
with CNAMES we do not guarantee that it will stay there.

Those of you without resolvers can find out the IP number of the new
machine by doing "finger irc.demon.co.uk@gate.demon.co.uk". You should
already know that the IP number of Gate is 158.152.1.65.

The new server is set up as the old one was, i.e. accessible by telnet
to port 6666, by telnet to the ordinary telnet port, or by pointing
your own client at the server on port 6667. The same hosts as before
are allowed access to the server. If your site cannot access the server
please get your sys-admin to email and ask for it to be added.

Please note that this is not a Demon supported service. Any questions
or problems should go to irc-admin@demon.net please. If you'd like to
know more about IRC have a read through the files in /pub/doc/irc on
ftp.demon.co.uk.

Thanks to those who provide links for our server (hi Jim, Spike), and
for putting up with two links from Demon while we tested the new server.
The old server will disappear from the net soon.

Regards,

Mark.

p.s. The new server has notes compiled in, have fun! :)
