This page demonstrates how to install a flash policy that must be installed to use web chats like LightIRC
This flash policy requires ruby to be installed.
Install without root
This demonstrates how to run flash without root. Login via ssh then do:
wget http://www.lightirc.com/release/flashpolicyd.zip unzip flashpolicyd.zip cd flashpolicyd chmod a+x flashpolicyd.rb ./flashpolicyd.rb --xml flashpolicy.xml --logfile flashpolicyd.log --port 8002 ps x
(then check flashpolicy is in the list that appears, if so it has been installed successfully)
Install with root
If you have root access start flash policy like this:
wget http://www.lightirc.com/release/flashpolicyd.zip unzip flashpolicyd.zip cd flashpolicyd chmod a+x flashpolicyd.rb ./flashpolicyd.rb --xml flashpolicy.xml --logfile flashpolicyd.log ps x
(then check flashpolicy is in the list that appears, if so it has been installed successfully)
Please note
Sometimes this flashpolicy may crash, if this happens lightirc users wont be able to connect. Simply go through the above steps to restart it.
