DWFree ZNC – VHosts
VHosts (virtual hosts) allow your IRC hostname to appear as something custom or cloaked, instead of revealing your real IP or generic ISP host.
DWBouncers provides VHosts to eligible DWFree ZNC users based on availability and approval.
📌 Who Can Request a VHost?
Only users with an **active DWFree ZNC** account may request a vHost.
Requirements:
- You must be using your ZNC regularly
- You must be connected via IPv6 (Free ZNC is IPv6 only)
- You must NOT be violating any network or service rules
✉️ How to Request a VHost
1. Join `#DWBouncers` on `irc.darkworld.network` 2. Use the following command:
```text !vhost <desired.vhost.example>
Example:
!vhost irc.user.fiznetwork
✅ VHost Rules
Please follow these guidelines when requesting a vHost:
No offensive, abusive, or impersonating hostnames
Dots . are required to make it a valid hostname (e.g., user.darkirc.net)
Underscores _ are NOT allowed (use hyphens - instead)
Hostnames must not violate trademarks or pretend to be part of staff
One vHost per ZNC user
🔄 How Long Does It Take?
Requests are usually processed within 24–48 hours
Stay connected after making the request
Approved vHosts will be applied automatically to your ZNC
🛠️ Changing or Removing VHost
You may request a new vHost after 7 days
To remove your vHost, type: !vhost remove
🧑💻 Support ZNC Users
If you have a Support ZNC, you may request advanced or reserved vHosts. See: DWBouncers/SupportZNC/Vhosts
❌ Abuse Policy
Any misuse of vHosts (e.g., evading bans, impersonation) will result in:
Immediate ZNC termination
Network-wide bans
Blacklisting from future requests
