A: Generally the answer would be no for both. However, there exist already
-at least one IRC client that supports SILC, the <a
-href="http://irssi.org/" class="normal">Irssi client</a>. The current SILC client is
-actually based on the user interface of the Irssi client. So, yes it is

+
+<a name="f3_25"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: The default theme sucks, where can I find a better one?</samp><br />
+A: The Irssi SILC client's theme files are almost 100% compatible with
+the original Irssi IRC client's themes. You can get those theme files
+from the <a href="http://irssi.org/" class="normal">Irssi project website</a>.
+You can also try to make a better theme by yourself.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_30"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How do I send a private message?</samp><br />
+A: Sending private message is done by using the MSG command. For example,
+command: <samp class="highlight">/MSG john hello</samp>, will send a
+`hello' message to a nickname `john'. By default private messages are
+secured with session keys, and the message is re-encrypted by the servers
+when the message travels to the receiver. If you would like to secure the
+private messages with a private key, you can negotiate a secret key with the
+receiver. Always remember to give WHOIS command before sending a private
+message to assure that you are sending the message to correct person.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_40"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How do I negotiate secret key with another user?</samp><br />
+A: It is important to negotiate secret keys if you cannot trust the servers
+and the network you are using. By negotiating a key with the user you
+want to talk to assures that no one except you and your friend is able
+to encrypt and decrypt the messages. The secret key negotiation is done with
+the KEY command. Here is an example of how to negotiate keys for securing
+private messages.
+<br /> <br />
+By giving command: <samp class="highlight">/KEY MSG john agreement
+192.168.2.100</samp>, you will send a key negotiation request to a nickname
+`john'. The 192.168.2.100 IP address would be your machine's IP address.
+You can also define an port to the KEY command after the IP address. If
+you do not do that the operating system will bind to a port of its choosing.
+John will receive a notification on the screen that you would like to
+negotiate secret keys with him, and he will receive the IP address and port
+where you are listenning for the negotiation. When he gives command:
+<samp class="highlight">/KEY MSG You negotiate 192.168.2.100 31382</samp>,
+the key negotiation is started. During the key negotiation you will be
+prompted on the screen to verify and accept John's public key if you do not
+have his public key already. The John will be prompted to accept your
+public key as well. After the key negotiation is over all private messages
+sent between you and John are secured with the negotiated secret key.
+Note that you must verify the public key you are prompted for, and this is
+very important since someone could be doing man-in-the-middle attack.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_50"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How do I negotiate secret keys behind a NAT?</samp><br />
+A: If only you are behind a NAT, or firewall then key negotiation works,
+but if both you and your friend are behind a NAT then key negotiation will
+not work, since it is done peer to peer. If you are behind a NAT then you
+obviously cannot receive key negotiations, and cannot bind to any IP address
+and port. However, you can still use KEY command to negotiate the keys.
+<br /> <br />
+By giving command: <samp class="highlight">/KEY MSG john agreement</samp>,
+without any other arguments (such as IP address and port) you will send
+a negotiation request to John, but do not provide an address and port for
+the John to connect to. When John receives the notification on the screen
+that you would like to perform key negotiation, he can give command:
+<samp class="highlight">/KEY MSG You agreement 172.16.100.78</samp>, which
+will send key negotiation request back to you. You will receive the IP
+address and port where you need to connect in order to perform the negotiation.
+After receiving the notification you can give command: <samp class="highlight">
+/KEY MSG john negotiate 172.16.100.78 31181</samp>, which will start the
+key negotiation with John. This way you can negotiate the keys if you are
+behind a NAT.

+
+<a name="f3_60"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How do I change channel modes?</samp><br />
+A: The command to manage channel modes is CMODE. With this command you
+can change the channel status (to change it to secret channel for example),
+set user limit on the channel, passphrase for the channel, set the channel
+to use private keys on channel, and set the founder mode.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_70"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: What does the founder mode on channel mean, and how do I set it?</samp><br />
+A: Who ever creates the channel by being the first user to join the channel
+becomes automatically the founder of the channel. Founder has some extra
+privileges on the channel. For example, it is not possible to kick the
+founder off the channel, and there are some channel modes that only the
+founder of the channel can change. If the creator of the channel wishes
+to preserve the channel founder mode even if he leave the channel he
+can set the founder mode for the channel.
+<br /> <br />
+The mode is set by giving command: <samp class="highlight">/CMODE #channel
++f -pubkey</samp>. This will set the founder mode and will use the public
+key of the founder as authenticator when the user is reclaiming the mode
+back. If the founder leaves the channel he will be able to get the founder
+mode back by using JOIN or CUMODE commmands. Giving command
+<samp class="highlight">/JOIN #channel -founder -pubkey</samp>,
+will get the founder mode back at the same time he joins the channel, or
+giving commmand <samp class="highlight">/CUMODE #channel +f -pubkey</samp>,
+will also give the founder mode back on the channel after he has joined
+the channel.
+<br /> <br />
+If the channel is destroyed after the last client leaves the channel,
+the founder mode is also reset. Who ever creates the channel after that
+will also get the channel founder mode automatically. Note also that the
+founder mode is local. You can reclaim the mode back only on the same
+server where you set the founder mode in the first place.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_80"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: I am founder of invite only channel, how can I join the channel after I have left it?</samp><br />
+A: Founder can override the invite only status by reclaiming the founder
+status on the channel using the JOIN command. The channel must have the
+founder mode set in order for it to work. Reclaiming founder status using
+JOIN command is important also if the channel has user limit set, and has
+active bans. Founder can override these conditions as well. However,
+founder cannot override the passphrase of the channel if it is set. To
+get the founder mode during JOIN and to override the invite only condition,
+give command: <samp class="highlight">/JOIN #channel -founder -pubkey</samp>.
+This will join the channel and attempt to reclaim the founder status back
+to you. Note that you need to be on the same server where you gave the
+founder mode for the channel for this to work.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_90"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How can I op or deop somebody on channel?</samp><br />
+A: Giving operator status, or removing the operator status on a channel
+requires you to have at least operator status, or founder status on the
+channel. You can give operator status to another user by using CUMODE
+command. To give ops give the command: <samp class="highlight">/CUMODE
+#channel +o john</samp>, and to remove ops give command:
+<samp class="highlight">/CUMODE #channel -o john</samp>. To indicate
+current channel you can also use `*' character in #channel's stead.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_100"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How do I set private key for channel, and what does that mean exactly?</samp><br />
+A: Setting private key for channel requires first to set the private key mode
+for the channel. You need to be the founder of the channel to be able to
+do this. Give the command: <samp class="highlight">/CMODE #channel +k</samp>.
+After this mode is set the old channel key will not be used to encrypt and
+decrypt channel messages. To set the key for the channel use the KEY command.
+Every user on the channel must do the same thing and set the same key.
+If some user on the channel does not set the key (or does not know the key)
+he won't be able to see any messages on the channel. Give the command:
+<samp class="highlight">/KEY CHANNEL #channel set verysecretkey</samp>.
+This command will set the `verysecretkey' passphrase as key to the #channel.
+How exactly other users will know this key is out of scope of the SILC
+protocol. SILC does not provide yet a possibility of negotiating secret key
+with many users at the same time. For this reason the secret key on the
+channel is usually a passphrase or a password that all users on the channel
+have to know. Setting a private key for channel means that only the users
+on the channel who know the key is able to encrypt and decrypt messages.
+Servers do not know the key at all. If you remove the private key mode
+from the channel, all users will start automatically using a new channel
+key to secure channel messages.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_110"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How do I transfer a file?</samp><br />
+A: You can transfer files securely using the FILE command. This command
+will automatically negotiate secret key with the remote user and the
+file transfer stream is secured using that key. The file transfer
+stream is always sent peer to peer. If you would like to send a file
+to another user you can give command: <samp class="highlight">/FILE
+SEND path/to/the/file john</samp>. This command sends, or actually
+makes the `path/to/the/file' available for download for the user `john'.
+The John will decide whether he wants to actually download the file.
+When John gives the command: <samp class="highlight">/FILE RECEIVE</samp>,
+the key negotiation is started. You and John will be prompted to verify
+and accept each other's public key if you do not have it cached already.
+After key negotiation is over the file transfer process starts.
+If you want to cancel the file transfer session, or if John wants to
+reject the file transfer request, giving the command: <samp class="highlight">
+/FILE CLOSE</samp> will close the session.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_120"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How can I get other users public keys?</samp><br />
+A: You can get a user's public key using the GETKEY command. This command
+will fetch the user's public key from the server where the user has connected
+to. The server has verified that the user posesses the corresponding private
+key, however, you will be prompted to verify and accept the public key.
+All client public keys are saved in your local key directory in
+~/.silc/clientkeys/. You can also receive clients public keys during
+key negotiation and file transfers. The GETKEY command can be used to fetch
+a server's public key as well. Those keys are saved in ~/.silc/serverkeys/
+directory.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_130"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How can I see the fingerprint of my public key?</samp><br />
+A: You can check out your own fingerprint by giving just WHOIS command without
+any arguments. Additionally you can also dump the contents of the key file
+using the silc program and giving -S option to it. Your own public key is
+always saved in ~/.silc/public_key.pub file. To dump your key run silc as:
+<samp class="highlight">silc -S .silc/public_key.pub</samp>. The same way
+you can dump the contents of any public key inside ~/.silc/clientkeys/ and
+~/.silc/serverkeys/ directories. The WHOIS command will also show other
+users public key fingerprints.
+<br /> <br />
+
+<a name="f3_140"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: I gave WHOIS to a nick, and it returned multiple replies, why?</samp><br />
+A: This will happen if there are several same nicknames in the network at
+the same time. As you may already know nicknames are not unique in SILC
+network. This means there can be multiple same nicknames. This also means
+that you can always have the nickname you want. If WHOIS returns multiple
+replies, you can distinguish the users by their realname, username,
+hostname and ultimately by the fingerprint of their public key, which the
+WHOIS will also show. You will also notice an additional nickname inside a
+parenthesis. It may show for example: <samp class="highlight">nickname: John
+ (John@otaku)</samp>. The real nickname is `John', but since there are
+many John's in the network you can access this one using `John@otaku'.
+So, if you were to send private message to this particular John you can do
+it by giving command: <samp class="highlight">/MSG John@otaku hello</samp>.
+This will send `hello' message to the John@otaku.

+
+<a name="f3_160"></a>
+<samp class="highlight">Q: How do I list the users of a channel?</samp><br />
+A: The command to list all users on a particular channel is USERS. It is
+also aliased to WHO command in Irssi SILC Client. To see the users of the
+current channel give the command: <samp class="highlight">/USERS *</samp>.
+You can replace the `*' with the channel name of your choosing. If the

A: Ports 706/tcp and 706/udp have been assigned for the SILC protocol by
-IANA. Server on the network listening above privileged ports (>1023)
-SHOULD NOT be trusted as it could have been set up by untrusted party.
-The server normally drops root privileges after startup and then run as
-user previously defined in silcd.conf.

+<samp class="highlight">Q: I see [Unknown] in the log file, what does it mean?</samp><br />
+A: You can see in the log file for example: <samp class="highlight">
+[Info] Closing connection 192.168.78.139:3214 [Unknown]</samp>. The [Unknown]
+means that the connection was not authenticated yet, and it is not known
+whether the connection was a client, server or router. There will appear
+[Client], [Server] or [Router] if the connection is authenticated at that
+point.
