Manual talk:IRC RC Bot

The following discussion has been transferred from Meta-Wiki.
Any user names refer to users of that site, who are not necessarily users of MediaWiki.org (even if they share the same username).

Added a few minor updates to the page to include a link to ircii, the <port> value to use in the given example and a guide to installing POE which is required by the Perl Script.

Also ammended $wgRC2UDPPrefix = ""; as ' ' was used before and caused wiki to not run. Ryanuk 07:20, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Port confusion

TCP/IP ports for tcp/udp endpoints are 16 bit; 1-65535 are available. 555666 is outside this range and likely being cropped to fit as 31378. (the lower 16 bits of that number) 76.88.99.93 23:18, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
