M Y S K U L =========== Welcome to MysKul. We are a group of friends from all over the world, but most of us live in Stockholm, Sweden. We mainly communicate through IRC in our channel #myskul on the server irc.myskul.net. The name MysKul is swedish and means "Cuddly Fun", it's also an alternate spelling/pronounciation for "MySQL". You are welcome to visit us on IRC, please follow the instructions below. S S L I N T R O D U C T I O N =============================== Due to the swedish government legalising wiretapping of all Swedish Internet traffic crossing the border by Sweden's National Defence Radio Establishment (Försvarets Radioanstalt - FRA), MysKul requires the use of SSL/TLS to participate in our conversations. Any adult is welcome, but we do not wish to just hand it to Big Brother without a fight. Connect to the IRC server on SSL port 6697 to join us. Instructions for different clients are available below. M I R C ======= follow the instructions at http://www.mirc.com/ssl.html connect with the command /server irc.myskul.net +6697 I R S S I ========= Everything just works(tm), connect to the server with the command /connect -ssl irc.myskul.net X C H A T ========= In XChat, SSL is supported by default, but the default SSL/TLS port is 9999, so you'll have to specify that you want to connect to port 6697 with one of the following commands: /server -ssl irc.myskul.net 6697 /server irc.myskul.net +6697 /server -ssl irc.myskul.net +6697
