Basic auth is set to be disabled in June: http://apiwiki.twitter.com/OAuth-FAQ#WhenareyougoingtoturnoffBasicAuth The authentication could be done similarly to tircds way: Connect to tircd with the username of ""oauth"". Tircd will make a challenege to twitter, and twitter will provide a link to tircd for you to authorize the connection. Follow the link, make sure you are logged into twitter as the user you wish to use tircd as, and then click Allow to allow the connection. Twitter will then present you with a PIN number. To complete your connection to tircd, type: /stats pin . On some clients that honor the irc protocol and do not expect you to be sending a stats command before connecting you may have to type: /quote stats pin . Tircd will then attempt to authorize the connection using the provided PIN." enhancement closed normal Twitter 1.2.6 fixed Client-independent Public server
