To configure bitlbee, do the following:

You have two options for launching bitlbee: either launch it from
inetd(8) or run it as a stand-alone daemon.

To launch bitlbee from inetd(8), add the following line to
/etc/inetd.conf and reload inetd(8):

ircd		stream	tcp	nowait	bitlbee	/usr/local/sbin/bitlbee	bitlbee -I

/etc/rc.conf:
