SILC is IRC like although internally they are very different. +Biggest similarity between SILC and IRC is that they both provide +conferencing services and that SILC has almost same commands as +IRC. Other than that they are nothing alike. + +Biggest differences are that SILC is secure what IRC is not in any +way. The network model is also entirely different compared to IRC. + +WWW: http://www.silcnet.org/ |
