I admit I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to IRC, but I'm having trouble connecting to it. Tried with WeeChat and KiwiIRC and got the same error: "LDAP authentication failed". Is it a problem with me or with the server? | I admit I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to IRC, but I'm having trouble connecting to it.

:{{reply to|Bcf}} The technical documentation is aimed more at sysadmins rather than end users, whereas end-user documentation for the various FeministWiki components is found on [[FW:Welcome]]. Still, I added a brief mention to this page of how the server authenticates clients, it's probably good to have it in multiple places. | :{{reply to|Bcf}} The technical documentation is aimed more at sysadmins rather than end users, whereas end-user documentation for the various FeministWiki components is found on [[FW:Welcome]].

:In KiwiIRC it should be enough to enable encryption (click the padlock icon to make it green) and enter your username and password into the standard fields. (It should switch to port 6697 when you enable encryption.) | :In KiwiIRC it should be enough to enable encryption (click the padlock icon to make it green) and enter your username and password into the standard fields.

:In WeeChat, add the FeministWiki via <code>/server add fw irc.feministwiki.org/6697 -ssl</code> and then set the username and password for the connection via <code>/set irc.fw.nicks Bcf</code> and <code>/set irc.fw.password my_password</code> and I think it should work. I haven't tested it though so please tell me if it doesn't work. | :In WeeChat, add the FeministWiki via <code>/server add fw irc.feministwiki.org/6697 -ssl</code> and then set the username and password for the connection via <code>/set irc.fw.nicks Bcf</code> and <code>/set irc.fw.password my_password</code> and I think it should work.
