IRC Basics

You should register your nickname on Freenode. To do this, connect as your desired username, then type:

/msg nickserv register <arbitrary_password_of_your_choice>

You can then set up your IRC client to login you in each time you connect.

Channels on freenode are managed by "ChanServs". ChanServs prevent malicious users from messing with your channel. You need a password to send commands to the ChanServ. To get help with the ChanServ, type this command:

/msg chanserv help 

For example, you can register yourself with the chanserv and then get OP status:

/msg chanserv register #campcaster <channel_password>
/msg chanserv op #campcaster <your_login_name>

Kopete settings

Go to "Settings->Configure" in the menu, select "Accounts", click New, select IRC from the list of protocols and click Next. Fill in your desired nickname, select the "Connection" tab and select "Freenode" network. Select the "Advanced configuration" tab and add the following commands at the bottom of the dialog:

/msg nickserv identify <arbitrary_password_of_your_choice>
/join #campcaster
/join #campsite
