How do I set up an IRC server that connects to a big IRC network?

I would like to connect my IRC server to the hackint network so all chats and channels that are hold on my IRC server are also mirrored in the hackint.net.

How can I set up that connection?

I am a bit unlucky in searching for it, cause I seem not to find the right keywords (peering???)

Solution

  • You can use a bit of another Concept:

    set up a Matrix synapse node and an IRC-Bridge

    All chats and users will be stored locally in your homeserver and whenever possible mirrored in the IRC-Chat and back.

    This is what I ended up with, so I'll set this as accepted answer, although the other hints are good to know and also valid.
