If you have access to a host that is always on you can run an irc session on it and connect/disconnect from that session without losing everything. This allows you to keep scrollback, stay present in channels when you are away, and have logs of what happens when you're not around. In this example I will use people.mozilla.org as my host. If someone can add good instructions for setting up a proxy in another way, please do. This tutorial will assume that you have an account on people.mozilla.org (or another server where you can ssh to it and run both 'screen' and 'irssi'), details on how to set this up are below.An alternative is [http://wiki.znc.in/ZNC ZNC].
