@ -13,12 +13,15 @@ ngIRCd \- the "next generation" IRC daemon
.BR ngIRCd
is a free, portable and lightweight Internet Relay Chat server for small
or private networks, developed under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
It is easy to configure, can cope with dynamic IP addresses, and supports
IPv6, SSL-protected connections as well as PAM for authentication.
It is written from scratch and not based on the original IRCd.
.PP
The server is quite easy to configure, can handle dynamic IP addresses, and
optionally supports IDENT, IPv6 connections, SSL-protected links, and PAM for
user authentication as well as character set conversion for legacy clients. The
server has been written from scratch and is not based on the "forefather", the
daemon of the IRCNet.
.PP
The name ngIRCd means
.IR "next generation IRC daemon",
.IR "next-generation IRC daemon",
which is a little bit exaggerated:
.IR "lightweight Internet Relay Chat server"
most probably would have been a better name :-)
