We recommend reading the Newbie Guide to DALnet for information on connecting to our chat network.

Within your IRC client, after connecting to a server on the DALnet IRC network, you'll be given the option of joining a chat channel. The broad amount of IRC clients will recognize the command "/join #Windows95" to enter our channel, although normally a simpler, graphical method is used.
