Closed Aust1994 closed 10 years ago

nick!user@host

I would like to change the user part there.

Hywan commented 10 years ago

Hello :-),

Change how? For what?

Aust1994 commented 10 years ago

Change how? I dont know how it is done. For what? Because I want to specify user and not have it default to unix username where irc client is running as.

Hywan commented 10 years ago

Hmm, I'm not sure to understand. I ping @Jir4.

Jir4 commented 10 years ago

A wild @Jir4 appears !!! Your unix username is asked by the server ( using http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/fr/mod/mod_ident.html ) and sent by your machine. If you don't want to provide it you have to disabled identd.

CircleCode commented 10 years ago

as an addition (I'm not sure to fully understand the question, but I try to contribute ;-) ) you can hide the username by asking a cloak (on freenode, this is achieved by requesting to staff in #freenode chan). see https://www.freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks

Jir4 commented 10 years ago

The cloak only hide the host, not the user.
