HostServ
HostServ lets you request a custom vhost (virtual hostname) that replaces your real hostname in /whois results.
Send commands with
/msg HostServ COMMAND or the shorthand /hs COMMAND.
You must be identified to NickServ to use HostServ.
Vhost requests are approved manually by a network operator. Keep requests reasonable. No impersonation, no misleading domains.
