Connecting
Connecting Via Tor
Connect to OuchNet over Tor with the network onion address, TLS fingerprint, and registration instructions.
Before using the onion service, connect over clearnet to
irc.ouch.chatand register your NickServ account.
OuchNet’s Tor endpoint is:
cvhhtp6fyf55faza7pbmy7vp2rdqnf6s5kcxbo5d2uahsmmen5eslqyd.onion
TLS fingerprint:
A4BC80696DAC936677DE0DCEA429D3B985C8A67449C5E54EB773BE5F5FBE9ECD
Keep in mind
- Tor connections require SASL and TLS. Use the TLS fingerprint or disable certificate verification in your client.
- Tor connections must use the
.onionaddress; direct clearnet connections are not supported for Tor users. - Spamming through Tor can result in deletion of the NickServ account.
When connected through Tor correctly, you will receive an ouchnet/tor/user cloak.
