  34 <PRE>   While this is somewhat like asking &quot;What's the best operating
  35 system for my desktop&quot; (in that the responses will vary, as everyone has
  36 their favourites), many folks on the list seem to use bahamut (1.4.30 or
  37 later), including myself, and it seems to get along with IRC Services just
  38 fine.
  39         While I have absolutely no personal experience running Unreal
  40 IRCd, dare I say that it seems to be responsible for the majority of the
  41 &quot;I have a problem&quot; posts to this list.  I think these relate to specific
  42 versions of Unreal though, as others apparently work just fine.
  43         It really depends on what you want from your IRCd though.  If
  44 you've been using Dreamforge until now, moving to bahamut may be the
  45 easiest transition.  Bahamut is designed for large networks though, in
  46 that it is not near as feature-rich as some other daemons, but can handle
  47 an incredible client load (there are servers on DALnet with 40K+
  48 concurrent users).
  49         The best way to go, I imagine, would be to check out the IRC
  50 Services docs to see what IRCds are supported, then look at those IRCds
  51 individually to see if they have what you want/need.

  58 &gt;<i> It has been years since we have explored the software available in irc
  59 </I>&gt;<i> and now we want to upgrade our server software and services. Of course,
  60 </I>&gt;<i> what services to get is easy:).
  61 </I>&gt;<i>
  62 </I>&gt;<i> My question is, what is the best open source server software available
  63 </I>&gt;<i> now that is 100% compatible with services?
  64 </I>&gt;<i>
  65 </I>&gt;<i> We want it to 'run itself' once it is properly configured. We have not
  66 </I>&gt;<i> had to touch the old dreamforge software in the past 3 years at all, in
  67 </I>&gt;<i> fact forgot it was even running.
  68 </I>&gt;<i>
  69 </I>&gt;<i> This will be a private, stand-a-lone server.
  70 </I>&gt;<i>
  71 </I>&gt;<i> Suggestions and &quot;problem warnings&quot; will be most appreciated.
