[LUGSB] IRC not working

[Richard Yao]

Dear Jan,

I sent an email earlier this week to Charlie requesting that he
install irssi on sparky. He said that he would look into it, but he
never replied. You could send him an email asking for the status of
that. His email is root at ic.sunysb.edu.

Alternatively, I believe that you can use SSH port forwarding on
Sparky to get access to IRC.

Yours truly,
Richard Yao
