my irc bouncer is configured to localhostrequires ssh tunneling to access itthis prevents eavesdropping and interception as traffic is encrypted22 is the only port opendiscuss
>>106470477Just use weechat/irssi in a screen/tmux session on a server you SSH into.
>>106470484retard
Traffic from the bouncer to the IRC server would still be plaintext though, what's the point?
>>106470500configuring your irc bouncer to localhost with ssh tunneling is retarded
>>106470518not if you're using IRC over TLS
>>106470545Then why use a bouncer
>>106470518ssl/tls>>106470537tell better method because znc web ui nor first hop is exposed to public internet
>>106470551its better
>>106470565Then why use a different server? If you don't have physical control over the hardware (say a VPS) the TLS client keys are sitting on hard disks owned by the VPS company, and by extension, every single glowie you're trying to avoid interception from
>>106470551Because if you're not connected to an IRC server 24/7 you will miss messages. Most IRC users leave their clients running all the time so they don't miss anything.An IRC bouncer is basically an IRC client that's always running that you can connect to.

>>106470537>not using IRC to send encrypted messages through an SSH tunnel over a VPN
>>106470477sex with mugetsu
>>106470477why not run irssi under screen then
>>106471129It's better.
>>106472860i can xdcc properly now
