2---
3These instructions were originally contributed by BlueShark. Thanks!

5HexChat is a fork of XChat with in-built [SASL](/kb/answer/sasl) support. It doesn't require any additional scripts for that purpose. The setup procedure is simple.
6
71. Open the Network List (Ctrl + S)
82. The freenode network may already exist; find it in the list then click on Edit
93. In the `User name` field, enter your primary nick
104. Select `SASL (username + password)` for the `Login method` field
115. In the `Password` field, enter your NickServ password
12
13If you are unable to edit the `User name` field, the change can be made in the `User Information` section on the Network List window.
14
15If everything was configured correctly, you should see a `SASL authentication successful` message when you connect. You will already be identified to NickServ, so you don't need to do this again.
