46e25db6 | 1 | Title: Configuring SASL for Epic5 |
2 | --- | |
3 | EPIC5 has the sasl_auth script built-in. Mikhail contributed this explanation of how to use it. | |
4 | ||
5 | Open your EPIC5 configuration file, ~/.epicrc or ~/.ircrc, in your preferred editor. | |
6 | Add the following lines: | |
7 | ||
8 | * `load sasl_auth` | |
9 | * `sasl_auth *.freenode.net plain username password` | |
10 | ||
11 | Replace username with your primary nick. The password may be replaced with your password or omitted, in which case EPIC5 will prompt for the password when it connects. | |
12 | You may change `*.freenode.net` to something more specific if desired, but the * means SASL authentication will be attempted for any freenode.net server. | |
13 | Only `plain` is supported as the authentication mechanism. You may want to use SSL to protect your password. | |
14 | ||
15 | If everything has been configured correctly, the next time you connect you should see the message: | |
16 | `SASL authentication successful` |
