then long delays occur before the server starts up because it tries to
resolve the name given in the General block (which usually isn't given
in /etc/hosts) and for each connecting client. If you specify "TRUE"
-here, then a call to gethostbyname() will be done only for the real
-hostname, and the server will not try to resolve clients that connect
-to "localhost." Note that other calls to gethostbyname() are still
-done if you use VIRTUAL_HOST; also note that the server still tries to
-resolve clients that connect to the real IP address of the server.

RANDOM_SEED

-This option is only needed when you wish to run multiple IRC servers
-on the same machine, and they must share at least one port. This will
-require having multiple IP addresses for the machine that will be
-hosting the servers. If you specify "TRUE" here, you can cause the
-server to bind to one of these IP addresses. Use the vhost field of
-the General block to specify the IP address. If you are unsure, stick
-with "FALSE."
