| | |
| you are familiar with BUZZnet. Buzznet requires each server to bring their own
| |
| | |
| actual resolvable and reversable domain. i.e. yourserver.buzznet.ovh is not a valid
| |
| | |
| name for a server wishing to link, where as irc.yourdomain.com is a valid name.
| |
| | |
| As long as the address responds properly to DNS propagation and places
| |
| | |
| connections on that specific server. This is known as an open domain network.
| |
| | |
| Where as yourserver.st.us.dal.net is an universal domain network, we adopt the open style
| |
| | |
| such as networks like ircnet and efnet. Where each server represents the domain
| |
| | |
| owned by the admin or the company sponsoring the server. t</blockquote>First you should know,

| == Section: Quick Link Eligibility Check List ==
| |
| A. Have you (admin) read and understood the Server Application Guidelines
| |
|
| |
| and believe your server to meet the requirements of linking to BUZZnet?
| |
|
| |
| B. Is your server provider-sponsored, or being paid for by you or
| |
|
| |
| your business? Paid servers are allowed, so long as the admin can
| |
|
| |
| convince us it is long term and financially fees able for the admin to
| |
|
| |
| maintain the fees.
| |
|
| |
| C. Are you running some flavor of UNIX? We suggest strongly one of the More Popular forms of Linux, Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian, Mint,
| |
|
| |
| D. Is your server capable of absorbing massive, multi-GBit/second DDoS
| |
|
| |
| attacks? At this point you should have a server that performs proper filtration
| |
|
| |
| and utilizes multiple firewalls.
| |
|
| |
| If you answered No to any of the above questions, do not submit an
| |
|
| |
| application. Do not submit this portion with your application.
