Hey guys, I'm new to IRC bouncers. I recently joined a tilde, and they
have given me a bouncer. I was able to do 'znc --makeconf' and added
necessary details, from there I have no clue where to go. Can you guys
please help.

It's like connecting to a regular IRC server, except you connect to
your bouncer, instead.

Usually something like

    /server your.server.or.ip:port zncuser:zncpassword

You should also be able to use the web interface at
http(s)://your.server.or.ip:port to set up users, networks, and
channels.

Hey why can't I log in to their web interface?
[znc.sometilde.com](https://znc.sometilde.com) they have username and
password. When I put my username and password that I created on
terminal using znc --makeconf is not working, What am I doing wrong
here?

BNCs suck, all of them, all the time, every one of them, every
version, yes yours too.  Get a shell with screen and be happy.
