You can start by reading the documentation and FAQ. Links to both in the sig.

Don't upload all the files to your shell. Download the .tar.gz from your shell and extract it there.

two more questions:

1) which program should i use to upload my files (i just had one, but i forgot the name and i installed windows again, yesterday)

2) should i upload the files a root or as web1 (server4you) ??

thx hibbert

1) DON'T upload the files. Download it from the shell (e.g. using wget).
2) Always work as the same user who will run Unreal IRCD later.

ok, tanks, but evrytime im type ./unreal start then this error is shown:

* Loading IRCd configuration ..
* unrealircd.conf:2: unknown directive admodule
[error] ERROR: No cloaking module loaded. (hint: you probably want to load cloak.so)
[error] If you are upgrading from 3.2 (or any older version), be sure to read the release notes or http://www.vulnscan.org/tmp/newcloak.txt regarding the cloaking change!
[error] IRCd configuration failed to pass testing

my first lines are:

admodule "src/modules/commands.so";

me {

info "Hibbert - Chat";
numeric 1;
};

so why do i have this error message ?

thx hibbert

Fix your spelling mistakes..

it's "loadmodule" not "amodule"
