ZNC is an IRC bouncer with many advanced features like detaching, C++/Perl module support, multiple users, multiple clients per user, channel/query playback buffers, SSL, transparent DCC bouncing, party line, and Web administration.

Here are some key features of "ZNC":
Detaching

ZNC will stay on IRC even while you are offline.

Multiple Users

You can add additional users under one running process. Useful for public shells that limit background processes.

Multiple Clients

Connect to the same user with as many clients as you want.

Playback Buffers

Stay up-to-date with what happened while you were detached.

SSL

Encryption for both the listen port and connecting to IRC servers.

DCC Bouncing

Transparent bouncing for DCC anonymity.

Perl Modules

Dynamically load Perl Modules which make use of the powerful features of ZNC and make IRC use even more fun. Write your own features in the easy-to-learn Perl
language!

C++ Modules

Dynamically loaded shared objects. Just derive from CModule and overload any needed functions such as OnPrivMsg(). IRC scripting in C++, what could be better than that?

Partyline

Using the global partyline module, you can join channels and query users on the internal ZNC network

Web Administration

Using the global webadmin module, admins can add/remove/edit users and global settings and non admins can edit their own user settings.

What's New in This Release:
This release adds IPv6 support, template support in Webadmin (now you can write your own skins easily), support for multiple Listen Ports, and a new module called autoop for "secure" opping.
It fixes some bugs and has some other feature enhancements.
