Improving IRC

 Connect to the IRC and identify yourself as an operator.  Here /mynetwork/ should be the same as *network_name* specified earlier within /ircd.conf/.  The network name is something equivalent to "freenode".

 If you wish to be able to log into the BBB via ssh and access IRC that way then you can create an Irssi deamon.  Note that this is only really appropriate for a single administrator user, not for a situation in which there are multiple users on the BBB.
 
 Install some prerequisites.
 Then to subsequently access irssi log into the BBB using ssh and type:
 
 #+BEGIN_SRC: bash
-screen -t irssi irssi
+screen -r irssi
 #+END_SRC
