Manual

If you are NOT OK with replacing your current U5 installation, for example if you want to have them in different directories, then:

  • Manually install UnrealIRCd 6 by downloading the .tar.gz and following all the usual procedures from Installing from source.
  • Manually copy over your U5 conf/unrealircd.conf to your U6 conf directory. And also don't forget your ircd.motd, tls/server.cert.pem, tls/server.key.pem, etc.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT blindly copy over ALL *.conf files. In particular, do not copy over modules.default.conf from U5 to U6.
