- Does this mean you'd have to have a compiled IRC program on your user
- account and then TELNET to this site?
-
- All this time, I've thought that you could just TELNET to some site,
- login IRC, and go from there (no compiled IRC software on my account).
- This must be my problem -- I don't have IRC program on my user account.
- It is on the U's account where everyone has access (in the environment
- path...).
