Have you ever felt frustrated because you were looking forward to a chat session but didn’t have access to a client? Firewalls, or simply not having access to your own machine, can be frustrating. Wth CGI:IRC, all you need for IRC is a web browser.
In some situations, I would rather chat online than phone people. My preferred IRC client is Irssi. It runs in a screen session on a server that I can access from wherever I happen to be using SSH.
Sometimes SSH just isn’t an option, like when your customers’ firewalls are too tightly locked down or if you visit an Internet café on vacation. A tool with the typographically challenging name of CGI:IRC can be the answer. The software gives you a web interface that passes input on to the IRC server.

Save the download and take Linux Magazine DVDs instead. Each DVD contains a full distro like Ubuntu, SUSE, Mandriva, Fedora, or Debian and comes with the corresponding issue of Linux Magazine. Don't waste time downloading Linux! |
