Joining is pretty simple: If you know how to connect to a
client port, UFO's CP (L<http://ix.ucis.nl/clientport.php> or
-L<http://www.qontrol.nl/anonet-cp.tgz>) will already land you in
-the right place. (Once you're online, you can join "the club" at

-you don't have an IRC client handy (or if you're too lazy to set
-it up to avoid leaking your real info), you can just telnet over to
-irc.somerandomnick.ano port 2323. Alternatively, you can point your
-Jabber client over to irc.somerandomnick.ano, or you can even use Jabber
-s2s to talk with everybody else by just joining the MUC room RendezVouz
-at irc.somerandomnick.ano.) If OpenVPN is all Greek to you, UFO's IRC
-server is also reachable from the public Internet (irc.kwaaknet.org port
-6667 channel #anonet). If IRC is all Greek to you, you may want to talk
-to your favorite search engine about that, or just use KwaakNet's Webchat
-(L<http://webchat.kwaaknet.org/?c=AnoNet>). (Note that if your only aim in
