I am interested in writing a custom IRC logger to a database, hopefully in java.
*what type of account do I need?
*can I have the server check if the application is not running and start it?
**start automatically after a server reset?
IRC Logger
You would need a Private Server, I guess.
Sorry, running IRC-related programs is not permitted. This is clearly stated in the terms of service which is located here: http://www.dreamhost.com/tos.html
This is regardless of whether or not you use DreamHost PS (virtual private server).
You will need to look into a dedicated or co-location hosting company that allows IRC-related programs.
This is a customer forum. If you want an official response from DreamHost, visit this page: http://dreamhost.com/contact.cgi instead.
