# inspIRCd SSL Setup
|
|
|
|
Before we start, you will need a Debian 10+ VPS (you can get one on digitalocean for example), if you prefer to use your own self hosted server, make sure that port 80 and 443 are correctly port forwarded so that the public ip points to the server and not the router. Once that's done, go and ssh into your debian 10 server.
|
|
|
|
You can use DuckDNS to get a free domain name:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[ 192.168.100.1/24 ] [ /dev/pts/13 ] [~/Nextcloud/blog/Conf]
|
|
→ ssh root@ech4.duckdns.org
|
|
The authenticity of host 'ech4.duckdns.org (178.128.46.38)' can't be established.
|
|
ECDSA key fingerprint is SHA256:z2HAncB99pfbAUfj9tJY7vlo8EGUzCIUxWBAnjAflcA.
|
|
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no/[fingerprint])? yes
|
|

## **Installation (compiled)**
|
|
|
|
|
|
apt update -y && apt upgrade -y
|
|
apt install gnutls-bin pkg-config g++ cmake libssl-dev openssl pkg-config -y
|
|
|
|
adduser --disabled-password inspircd
|
|
su inspircd
|
|
|
|
cd
|
|
wget https://github.com/inspircd/inspircd/archive/v3.7.0.tar.gz
|
|
tar xvf v3.7.0.tar.gz
|
|
cd inspircd-3.7.0/
|
|
./configure --enable-extras ssl_openssl
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
  
|
|
|
|
next just run the make command stated at the end, and wait for it to build (it takes a while):
|
|
|
|
|
|
make -j2 install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
... wait a long time
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Once it's done goto /inspircd-3.7.0/run/conf and download my config:
|
|
|
|
|
|
cd ~/inspircd-3.7.0/run/conf
|
|
|
|
echo 'welcome to nihilists server!' > inspircd.motd
|
|
echo 'dont be bad!' > inspircd.conf
|
|
wget https:/blog.nowhere.moe/servers/irc/inspircd_ssl.conf -O inspircd.conf
|
|
nano inspircd.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
exit #back to the root shell
|
|
cp /home/inspircd/inspircd-3.7.0/run/inspircd.service /etc/systemd/system/inspircd.service
|
|
systemctl enable inspircd
|
|
|
|
su inspircd
|
|
cd /home/inspircd/inspircd-3.7.0/run/
|
|
./inspircd start
|
|
|
|
nestat -lntp
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And here we can see that the server is running, now let's try to login:
|
|
|
|
ssl login failed, very lazy to figure out why it doesn't let me connect, lol. Probably it is either in the irssi connection command (**/connect -ssl irc.ech4.duckdns.org 6667 123456**) or something very easy to overlook in the config file as usual. If you have the solution for this, don't hesitate to send me the solution. Instead i'll just move over to the TOR version which looks a trillion times easier to do.
|
|
|
|
## **CLI IRC Client (expected)**
|
|
|
|
Connect: irc.ech4.duckdns.org:6667:
|
|
|
|
|
|
apt install irssi -y
|
|
irssi
|
|
|
|
#/connect IP PORT PASSWORD NICKNAME
|
|
|
|
/connect -ssl 127.0.0.1 6667 123456 nihilist
|
|
/disconnect
|
|
|
|
/connect -ssl 167.172.60.28 6667 123456 nihilist
|
|
/disconnect
|
|
|
|
/connect -ssl ech4.duckdns.org 6667 123456 nihilist
|
|
|
|
/LIST
|
|
#this will show you which channels are active
|
|
|
|
/join #general
|
|
hello!
|
|
how are you?
|
|
bye!
|
|
/leave
|
|
/join #test
|
|
ahoy!
|
|
test?
|
|
goodbye!
|
|
/leave
|
|
/disconnect
|
|
|
|
|
|
 
|
|
|
|
For extra details on how to configure your IRC server just look at that example [](https://blog.nowhere.moe/inspircd/inspircd.example.conf)file:
|
|
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/share/doc/inspircd/examples/
|
|
gunzip -d inspircd.conf.example.gz
|
|
nano inspircd.conf.example
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## **GUI IRC Client (expected)**
|
|
|
|
If you don't like irssi, you can use hexchat (GUI) to connect aswell:
|
|
|
|
|
|
apt install hexchat -y
|
|
pacman -S hexchat -y
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
