Setting up webirc

[shalabajzr]

Hi,

new to the lounge, trying to set up webirc so that users will access the irc network with their own IP instead of having 100s of users from the server ip. I've set up webirc config like this, but it doesn't seem to be working (users connect with the server ip):

webirc: {
"irc.xyz.com": (webircObj, network) => {
webircObj.password = "webirc";
webircObj.hostname = webirc/${webircObj.hostname};
return webircObj;
},
},

irc server is ircd-hybrid. there's an auth line with webirc@* and password webirc.

The lounge is The Lounge v4.2.0 (Node.js 12.13.0 on linux x64). Public. Running identd and reverseproxy.

Debug info when someone connects:
