[Wftl-lug] logging onto Linux.com's irc channel in xchat

[Ken Leyba]

Open Xchat and in the Networks section click on the Add button.  You can
name the network anything you want, for example Linux.com.  Select the new
network and click on the Edit... button.  Change newserver/6667 to
irc.linux.com/6667.  In the Channels to join: box enter "#linux.com",
without the quotes.  Then click on Close.  You can now select the new
network and click on the Connect button to join the chat.
