NAME
       znc - An advanced IRC bouncer

SYNOPSIS
       znc --help
       znc --version
       znc --makepass
       znc [-n] [-d datadir] [-D] [-f]
       znc [-n] [-d datadir] [-D] [-f] --makeconf
       znc [-n] [-d datadir] [-D] [-f] --makepem

DESCRIPTION
       znc  is	an IRC proxy.  It runs as a daemon and connects to IRC server,
       then allows you to connect from a workstation and work as the user that
       is logged in to the IRC server.	After you disconnect, it maintains the
       connection to the server.  It acts like any normal IRC server,  so  you
       can use any IRC client to connect to it.

OPTIONS
       -h, --help
	      Output a brief help message.

       -v, --version
	      Show the full version number.

       -n, --no-color
	      Don't use any color escape sequences.

       -f, --foreground
	      Don't fork the ZNC process into the background.

       -D, --debug
	      Print debug output to the console. Implies --foreground.

       -d DATADIR, --datadir=DATADIR
	      Specify another datadir.	This is where znc saves everything.

       -c, --makeconf
	      Interactively create a new configuration.

       -s, --makepass
	      Hash a password for use in znc.conf.

       -p, --makepem
	      Generate znc.pem.	 This is the server certificate znc uses.  You
	      need this for SSL.

SIGNALS
       This section explains how znc reacts to different signals:

       SIGINT Exit ZNC. This is equivalent to /znc shutdown

       SIGHUP Reload znc.conf. This is equivalent to /znc rehash

       SIGUSR1
	      Rewrite znc.conf. This is equivalent to /znc saveconfig

FILES
       /usr/local/share/znc/
	      Static module data like webadmin skins

       /usr/local/lib/znc/
	      znc installs its modules to this directory.

       /usr/local/include/znc/
	      These are the headers needed for compiling own modules.

       ~/.znc This is the default datadir. The following paths assume that you
	      use  this.   If you change this via --datadir then the following
	      lines are relative to that dir.

       ~/.znc/znc.pem
	      This is the server certificate znc uses  for  listening  on  SSL
	      ports.   You can generate this via --makepem and you may replace
	      this with your own certificate, if you want to.

       ~/.znc/modules/
	      If you compile your own modules, you can save them here.

       ~/.znc/configs/znc.conf
	      This is the path to znc.conf.  Use --makeconf for an easy way to
	      generate it.

       ~/.znc/users/USERNAME/
	      The  data	 for every user is saved in this dir.  USERNAME refers
	      to the user name of that user.

       ~/.znc/users/USERNAME/moddata/MODULENAME/
	      This is where each module can save some stuff.  This  is	mainly
	      used  for	 remembering  module  settings	that  are  not part of
	      znc.conf.

       ~/.znc/moddata/MODULENAME/
	      This is where global modules may save their settings.
