This document provides instructions for connecting to an IRC network and channel using the Xchat client. It explains what IRC is, how to install and use Xchat on Backtrack 5 to connect to the FreeNode server, how to register a nickname and get a cloak for privacy. It also outlines etiquette expectations for participating in the #offsec channel, such as being polite, avoiding exercise specifics, and how to get admin help if needed.
