-This page describes how you would register for an account on the AfterNET IRC network+This page describes how you would register for an account on the AfterNET IRC network. AfterNET allows you to register accounts but does not allow you to use a Nickserv or similar feature to reserve your nick. 
 + 
 +At present you will need to start off by establishing a connection to AfterNET IRC using your client. 
 + 
 +Once you have connected successfully you can register your account. 
 + 
 +The syntax you need to use is 
 + 
 +<code>/msg AuthServ register <account> <password> <email> </code> 
 + 
 +where  
 +  *  <account> is the account name you wish to have 
 +  *  <password> is the password for the account you would like to use 
 +  *  <email> is the email address you would like to register with 
 +(You do not enter the <> around the values) 
 + 
 +Once you have completed this message send it from your IRC client (usually by pressing Enter). 
 + 
 +You will then receive an Email into your registered email address to verify it, follow these instructions to confirm the account. 
 + 
 +The email will give you a "cookie" along with the command to enter which is 
 + 
 +<code>/msg AuthServ cookie <account> <cookie> </code> 
 +where 
 +  * <account> is the account name you entered earlier 
 +  * <cookie> is the cookie value from your Email 
 +(again, do not enter the <>) 
 + 
 +Once you have done this AuthServ will confirm you have registered and able to login with your account - it will then log you in. 
 + 
 +This is detailed in the X3 Help system: 
 + 
 +<code>Command help for: REGISTER 
 +=---------------------------------------= 
 +/msg AuthServ@X3.AfterNET.Services REGISTER <account> <password> <email> 
 +DO NOT TYPE THE < and >! <> indicates required fields. 
 +Register is the command to create an an account with AuthServ. Having an account provides a single login identity for the network, and for use with X3. 
 +Email activation is required: An email will be sent to the email address you give to verify it. You must provide a valid email address or registration will fail. After you register, check your email for instructions validating your account. 
 + 
 +If you already have an account, login using the AUTH command: /msg AuthServ@X3.AfterNET.Services AUTH <accountname> <password> 
 +See Also: auth, unregister
