From: dougmc@comco.com (Doug McLaren) Newsgroups: alt.irc,alt.irc.questions Subject: EFNet server list - 08/31/95 EFNet server list generated : 08/31/95 Servers that averaged less than 5 users or were up less than 25% of this period are not listed, as they are either extremely unreliable, brand new or probably not for general use. Keep in mind that not all servers will allow users from all sites, especially from distant sites. Also note that most servers restrict or totally ban bots, so be sure to do `/motd ' and see if they do if you wish to place a bot there. If in doubt, don't assume or guess - ask. The email address of the admin of a server is available by typing `/admin ' in most cases. Try to choose a server that is close to you. As a rule of thumb, servers that are close geographically are also close network-wise (which is what matters) but this rule of thumb is not always true. If in doubt, email the admin of a nearby server, or ask on channel #irchelp. IP addresses are given for those using old IRC clients or who don't have working name servers. It's best to use the server's full name as opposed to it's IP address, as the latter can change without warning. All servers should have resolvable hostnames ... but apparantly some do not. The admins of these servers should update their DNS tables, as this makes these servers difficult to access. This list will (if all goes well) be posted to alt.irc and alt.irc.questions twice a month. I'm still working on the program I use to generate it, so it may change in format somewhat in the future. I plan on adding a field for comments about individual servers, such as `Netcom users only' so keep an eye out for it. Direct questions or comments to me at dougmc@comco.com. --- Server list follows --- rainbow.studorg.tuwien.ac.at 128.130.43.98 Austria uni-linz.ac.at unresolvable Austria itc.univie.ac.at unresolvable Austria irc.wu-wien.ac.at 137.208.3.30 Austria irc.utas.edu.au 131.217.10.4 Australia ircserver.cltr.uq.oz.au 130.102.224.2 Australia irc.uq.oz.au 130.102.46.10 Australia irc.qabc.uq.oz.au 130.102.46.10 Australia othello.ulb.ac.be 164.15.89.149 Belgium sifon.cc.mcgill.ca 132.206.27.10 Canada irc.cs.mun.ca 134.153.1.2 Canada elk.nstn.ca 137.186.130.10 Canada irc.polymtl.ca 132.207.144.8 Canada hadar.cc.umanitoba.ca 130.179.20.13 Canada irc.unb.ca 131.202.3.6 Canada irc.yorku.ca unresolvable Canada irc.ethz.ch 129.132.104.6 Switzerland irc02.irc.aol.com 152.163.173.26 USA, Virginia irc.best.com 204.156.128.88 USA, California, Mountain View irc.cris.com 199.3.12.20 USA, Michigan, Bay City irc.escape.com 198.6.71.13 USA, New York irc.eskimo.com 204.122.16.98 USA, Washington irc.neosoft.com 198.64.213.130 USA, Texas irc.netcom.com 192.100.81.2 USA, California irc2.netcom.com unresolvable USA, California irc3.netcom.com unresolvable USA, California irc4.netcom.com unresolvable USA, California irc5.netcom.com unresolvable USA, California irc.nokia.com unresolvable Finland irc.portal.com 156.151.1.101 USA, California irc2.portal.com 156.151.1.110 USA, California irc.primenet.com 204.245.0.246 USA, Arizona irc.winternet.com 198.174.169.50 USA, MI, Eden Prarie noc.belwue.de 129.143.2.1 Germany fu-berlin.de unresolvable Germany tu-muenchen.de unresolvable Germany uni-erlangen.de unresolvable Germany uni-karlsruhe.de unresolvable Germany uni-kl.de unresolvable Germany uni-paderborn.de 131.234.10.3 Germany .. 131.234.60.14 .. .. 131.234.2.3 .. uni-rostock.de unresolvable Germany uni-stuttgart.de unresolvable Germany alk.iesd.auc.dk 130.225.48.46 Denmark irc.hacks.arizona.edu 128.196.230.13 USA, Arizona seltzer.csua.berkeley.edu 128.32.43.55 USA, California, Berkeley irc.ecn.bgu.edu 143.43.34.201 USA, Illinois cs-pub.bu.edu 128.197.13.20 USA, Massachusetts azure.acsu.buffalo.edu 128.205.7.6 USA, New York irc.math.byu.edu 128.187.219.120 USA, Utah harp.aix.calpoly.edu 129.65.64.2 USA, California irc.colorado.edu 128.138.129.170 USA, Colorado organ.ctr.columbia.edu 128.59.68.35 USA, New York red-dwarf.cit.cornell.edu 132.236.56.9 USA, New York irc.iastate.edu 129.186.150.1 USA, Iowa irc.ilstu.edu 138.87.1.7 USA, IL, Normal irc-2.mit.edu 18.180.0.2 USA, Massachusetts irc.catt.ncsu.edu unresolvable USA, North Carolina irc.pitt.edu 136.142.185.34 USA, Pennsylvania irc.cs.rpi.edu 128.213.4.197 USA, New York irc.rutgers.edu 165.230.224.131 USA, New Jersey irc.sdsc.edu 192.215.255.10 USA, California, San Diego w6yx.stanford.edu 36.55.0.50 USA, California anarchy.tamu.edu 128.194.12.120 USA, Texas, College Station irc.ucdavis.edu 128.120.2.16 USA, California elliot.ics.uci.edu 128.195.4.41 USA, ?
