Here's what I would do to set up a DNS.

1. Get a domain or use a domain I have.
2. Get that on hosting or use DNS editor that's provided by registrar under conditions (probably).
3. Do something like irc.example.tld as a DNS, make it point to my server IP. It would be an A record.
4. Change these things:

Code: Select all

me
{
	name "irc.example.tld";
	info "Example";
	numeric 1;
};

Code: Select all

set {
	network-name 		"Example";
	default-server 		"irc.example.tld";
	services-server 	"services.example.tld";
	stats-server 		"stats.example.tld";
	help-channel 		"#Example";
	hiddenhost-prefix	"exa";
        //rest of the set block
};
Restart server, tada!
