I just recently set up an IRC server on my Ubuntu box (11.04, no remix), and would like to set up a server password that one must provide on login. How do I do this?

I have dancer-ircd and dancer-services installed if it makes any difference

ya know, since we're on the topic of IRC, how do I make it so that IRC admins/operators can chanop themselves? – tekknolagi Aug 13 '11 at 21:36
