README

        
IRC is used by Electrum server to find 'peers' - other Electrum servers. The

current list can be seen by running:

  electrum-server peers

The following config file options are used by the IRC part of Electrum server:

    [server]

    irc = yes

    irc_nick = server_nickname

    host = fqdn.host.name.tld

    # report_host = fqdn.host.name.tld

    # report_stratum_tcp_port = 50001

`irc` is used to determine whether the IRC thread will be started or

the Electrum server will run in private mode (default). In private

mode, `electrum-server peers` will always return an empty list.

`host` is a fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) of your Electrum

server. It is used both when binding the listener for incoming client

connections and as part of the realname field in IRC (see below).

`report_host` is a an optional fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) of

your Electrum server instead of `host`. It is used as part of the name

field in IRC for incoming client connections.  This is useful in a NAT

setup where you bind to a private IP locally but have an external IP

set up at your router and external DNS.

`report_stratum_tcp_port` and `report_stratum_tcp_ssl_port` are

optional settings for a port number to be reported in the IRC name

field without actually binding this port locally. This is useful in a

NAT setup where you might want to bind to a high port locally but DNAT

a different possibly privileged port for inbound connections

`irc_nick` is a nick name that will be appended to the ELEC_ suffix when

composing the IRC nickname to identify your server in the #electrum-xvg IRC channel

Please note the IRC name field can only contain 50 chars and will be

composed of `host` + protocol version number + Port numbers for the

various protocols.  Please check whether port numbers are cut off at

the end

Example of port forwarding using iptables:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 110 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 50002
